## Description

UK Research and innovation had a requirement to commision a report to increase confidence in being able to deliver the expected Super MuSR chopper specification the report is to; Presentation of a solution that is expected to meet the full specification\. A description and diagrams of the circuit used for the demonstration and proposal for the full system, including connection to the chopper plates\. • If the demonstration system is of a single plate \(see Section 5\.2\.1\), then consideration for the opposite charge shall be presented\. • Results from the design and testing of the demonstration system, which may include as is relevant: o Performance achieved; including voltage, rise time, jitter, pre and post transition waveforms, repetition rate and repeatability\. o Effects of scaling the technology; such as change in rise time when increasing from one to two and from two to three series connected plates of parallel MOSFETs\. o Conditions affecting performance\. o Effect of load on performance\. • An assessment of your level of confidence that the proposed solution is suitable to achieve the full specification, preferably in a risk assessment format where individual risks are identified and solutions presented\. • Calculations and any assumptions made\. • Suggestions of next steps needed to achieve full specification\.
