A '''linear transformer driver''' (LTD) is a cylindrically shaped [[Series and parallel circuits#Parallel circuits| parallel]] connection of switches and [[capacitors]] designed to deliver rapid high [[Power (physics)|power]] pulses. The LTD is capable of producing high current, up to 1 MA, pulses with a risetime of less than 100 ns. This is an improvement over [[Marx generator]] based [[pulsed power]] devices which require pulse compression to achieve such fast risetimes. It is being considered as a driver for z-pinch based [[inertial confinement fusion]].
