Hey okay, so I have a 12V source which can provide a max of 10 mA, and I also have a switch that can go from open to close in 1 ms, How can I create an inductive circuit that will create a spark gap between electrodes that are 3mm apart? I did the math and found the breakdown voltage to be 2334.24 V, so I guess I need to figure out a way to get my input voltage of 12V to my desired 2334.24V in order to ionize the air and have it actually jump. I just don't know how to build a circuit that would do that?
I think I would use a capacitor that would initially build up voltage until I reach my breakdown voltage and then release from the switch, and then I'm lost. Any suggestions? Thanks!
