“…Linear proton accelerators use special resonant cavity chambers that are supplied by klystrons [2] or inductive output tubes (IOTs), [3]. IOTs require 40-45 kV DC supply [4]. A high-frequency common inverter for the series connected AC/DC module supply [5], consisting of a step-up pulse transformer, a diode rectifier and an LC filter [6], would be the most convenient way to supply IOTs.…”

“…A major goal at DOE is development of high efficiency, MW-class, high duty RF sources for several potential applications for RF power. Recent demonstration of 1.2 MW multiple beam IOTs (MBIOTs) by CPI-Thales and L3 Electron Devices (L3) demonstrated that these sources can provide this level of power, at least at low duties [24,25]. These devices, though achieving the power and efficiency specifications, were quite complex and expensive.…”

“…As discussed elsewhere [18], recent study suggests operating in an injection-locked mode offers a higher efficiency (typically in range of > 80%) compared to klystrons and IOTs, which offer 65% efficiency and solid-state RF sources, which are 50% efficient at 650 MHz. Regarding lifetime, the magnetron lasts between 2000 and 4000 hours while IOTs and klystrons can last up to 50000 hrs [19][20][21]. However, use of the magnetron simplifies the overall design by avoiding large RF-circulators and thus is simpler to operate.…”
