DETERMINATION OF RESPONSES OF PROTECTED AND UNPROTECTED ELECTRIC INITIATORS TO ELECTRICAL STIMULI. SPECIAL TECHNICAL REPORT ON THE RF DESENSITIZED PNPN SWITCH.

Abstract

Five samples of the RF desensitized PNPN switch were evaluated. The units were first tested to determine dc and low frequency characteristics. Following these tests each unit was packaged as a protective device and tested to determine RF operating characteristics. Quantities measured directly were input impedance of the connected inert MK-1 squib (ZL). transfer impedance (Zp) and/or voltage attenuation. These data were used to compute the evaluation parameters Power Attenuation (PA) and minimum possible Insertion Loss (ILr). (Author)
