Switches

SARA’s switch technology enables precision energy delivery. From high-power spark gaps to laser triggered high-power semiconductor switches, we can customize solutions to meet your needs. We have extensive experience with MOSFETs, SCRs, IGBTs, photoconductive switches, spark gaps, thyratrons, and much more. 

Our capabilities support repetition rates from 1s of Hz to 100s of kHz in the most energy dense form factors available. Our high-power semiconductor switch assemblies are capable of switching 100s of kV and 1000s of amps with minimal losses.
