Please give my best regards to me in the Japanese though it is not so
good at English.
I developed SSTC that started easily easily very much.
From the Secondary of Tesracoil to direct fathom of signal
It is a circuit that amplifies by the emitter follower and does
MOSFET in the switching.
The square wave of 1MHZ is used with LMC555 for the trigger.
It is a problem that the damage rate of MOSFET is very high.
It is likely not to move according to the transistor and MOSFET for
amplification even though the certainty is high.

Welcome smile

Aren't pins 2 and 6 supposed to be connected to pin 7 with a resistor? I haven't seen any configurations where the output is fed back to the 555.

Because it was a thing made from the improvisation, 555 oscillation circuit was not corrected that it was detailed.
The high frequency that becomes a trigger from this oscillation circuit is output.
When SSTC starts, the output from 555 moves SSTC by using the lack in the feedback signal from Tesracoil and erasing.

The Pin 3 Feedback with a resistor to pin 2 and 6 works good, and gives it 50% duty cycle (that is the difference between the another) , but a buffer is really needed on the output, because if the currents get high on the 555 output, the voltage drops, and the frequency changes (and some times stop to oscilate).

I use that 555 configuration in some of my interrupters, that you can get a very better adjust of duty cycle (with diodes)

You need clamping diodes on the primary of the GDT.

I never used clamping diodes on the primary of the gdt, and is working fine.
Why I should use?

Please note, the IGBT must be rated at double the input voltage, because the supply is in series with the induced voltage created in the 'off' side.

If you use gate driver chips its OK without diodes (they are built in). If you use bipolar transistors for driving the GDT, you must use diodes.

Gate driver chips internally have a halfbridge, and each MOSFET has its own diode by its own nature.

The TI UCC series of drivers seems more robust in this respect (not needing clamping diodes), but in my experience the Microchip TCxxxx series are easy to kill without them.

Anyway, nice work NNO2 , we all like to see new ways to build things!
