American High Voltage history has very interesting geographical factors which allow one to trace a company's direct lineage. Directly after W.W. II, primarily due to the proximity of MIT Radiation Laboratory and related RADAR work, most of the high voltage technology in America was based on the East Coast. Here, companies like General Electric, Grumman Aerospace, and Fairchild developed sources for high voltage military equipment.By the 1970's, many power supply companies had begun to take advantage of the vast market created by computer manufacturers which required low output voltages, usually in the range of 5, +/-12V. Many of these companies sought to expand into the area of high voltage power conversion, only to find that the rules that govern design and production are not the same as for low voltage products. High voltage designs invariably require attention to dielectric mechanisms.The engineers at American High Voltage have been designing High Voltage Power Supplies for over 30 years. Since the 1980's we have led the way in developing and utilizing resonant switching technology for our high voltage products.
