The development of high-stability and high-repetition-frequency pulse power sources requires that a gas switch has stable breakdown performance and repetition-frequency operation capability, and the switch generally adopts two working modes of external triggering and self-triggering sharpening. The external trigger unit is precisely matched with the pulse power source in the external trigger mode by adding the external trigger unit, and outputs trigger pulses at a determined moment to realize the conduction of the gas switch and the output of the pulse power source, but the external trigger unit can increase the realization difficulty of the pulse power source, so that the device becomes more complex.
