Pulsed Eddy Current Testing (PECT) is a hotspot for non-destructive testing of metallic materials. As a key part of the system, the performance of the excitation source will directly affect the results. A new pulse power supply circuit is proposed to overcome the problems of long turn-off time, no constant current control, large volume, and low power of the excitation source in the existing PECT method for material defects. It uses a combination of linear regulated power supply and switched power supply to realize a compound circuit topology of constant current and constant voltage clamp. Then...
