The transformer in the Klimax is less than 40mm (1.5 inches) cube. At 50/
60 Hz it could deliver about 5 Watts. In the Klimax it can deliver 1000 Watts.
The reservoir capacitors in the Klimax are about the size of a thimble but
give better filtering than ones the size of a beer can used in other very
powerful amplifiers.
The semiconductor switches turn on and off in about 20nS (20 one
thousandth millionths of a second).
The overload protection for the switches can detect a potentially destructive
condition and protect the switches in less than half a microsecond (half of
one millionth of a second).
We have patent protection for one of the innovative noise control techniques
that are used.
