Design of Solid State Tesla Coil Using 555 Timer and IRFP460N MOSFET
Abstract: The Solid State Tesla Coil is a device which is capable of producing extremely high voltage, high frequency and low amperage alternating current electricity. The original device i. e. the Spark Gap Tesla Coil was designed by Nikola Tesla around 1891. This device has similarities to that of a traditional Spark Gap Tesla Coil but has a different circuitry for operation. This paper documents the design, operation and construction of such a system.
