Abstract

See full text

A power supply for a magnetron varies a power output level and prevents moding of the magnetron. To provide a variable power output, a microprocessor senses an anode current and voltage of the magnetron. Based on the sensed signals, the microprocessor adjusts the conduction angle of a thyristor to obtain the desired power level. The microprocessor also monitors the anode voltage for detecting moding of the magnetron. If moding is detected, the microprocessor adjusts the conduction angle of another thyristor to change the current supplied to the filament. By changing the filament current, the microprocessor effectively prevents the moding of the magnetron.
