Bergoz FCT Fast Current Transformer
The Fast Current Transformer (FCT) is a wideband AC transformer with a rise time down to 175ps and a bandwidth up to 2GHz.
Used world-wide on all high-energy particle accelerator to observe very short beam pulses. Exceptional bandwidth and sensitivity are achieved by using amorphous cobalt-based alloy cores specially annealed in a magnetic field to obtain very high permeability and low loss at frequencies to 2 GHz.
FCT can be embedded inside a conflat flange fo direct mounting on the beam pipe.
Features
- Bandwidth up to 1.5GHz 200-ps risetime
- Extra-high sensitivity up to 10 V/A with limited bandwidth
- Available in six different apertures ranging from 16mm up to 178mm. Larger apertures are available on request.
- Available to be installed over the vacuum chamber (In-air model) or along the beam line (In-flange model)
Applications
- Pulsed beams in particle accelerators
- Partial discharge pulses from corona wires, in insulation defects
- Pulsed beams in particle accelerators
- Current rise in semiconductor gates, triggers
- Surge current waveforms in EMI/EMC analysis
- Capacitive discharge pulses

- For R&D Cyclotrons with multiple energies, the FCT can be used with lock-in amplifier for very high resolution current measurement. For cyclotrons with fixed energy (aka commercial, medical), the Turbo-ICT becomes preferred (and with even better resolution).
