The Day We Zapped a Drone—And Built a Product Line We take pulsed power seriously. But sometimes, engineering is about more than precision specs and MIL-STD compliance—sometimes, it’s about play. [...]

Sometimes change is good, and other times… not so much. One thing is certain though: time always seems to bring change. It just seems to take even more time — and a bit of hindsight — to really [...]

This blog provides an in-depth look at some of APELC’s single-pulse pulsed power systems. These systems are designed for applications requiring precisely controlled, non-repetitive [...]

In the realm of high-voltage pulsed power, the selection of core technology is critical. APELC’s specialization in Marx generators is not a matter of happenstance, but rather a result of [...]

APELC has recently observed a significant convergence between venture capital-funded fusion energy ventures and the established work of the Department of Energy (DOE). This evolving landscape [...]

Part 2: Taking Compact High-Power RF to the Next Level In Part 1 of this article, From Customer Request to Product Line, we discussed how a US Department of Defense customer requirement for a [...]

Part 1: From Customer Request to Product Line In 2006, a pressing need emerged within the US military: a portable, high-power RF system capable of testing vulnerabilities in electronic systems. [...]

One of APELC’s greatest strengths is our dedication to customer service, beginning at the quoting process and continuing through the full lifecycle of our products. This approach allows us [...]

While defense has historically been the primary driver of pulsed power system development (see our previous blogs: 5 Things to Know About Pulse Power and More Pulse Power History), a broad range [...]

While APELC does everything possible to make our systems low-maintenance and reliable, the honest truth is that any high-voltage system has unique failure modes that require some specialized [...]
