A switching circuit (10) for selectively discharging energy from a pulse forming network (PFN) or capacitor (14) in the form of pulses is described. The switching circuit (10) is comprised of a high power solid state switch (16) configured to selectively discharge energy from the PFN or capacitor (14) to the input of a tranformer (20). Disposed between the PFN (14) and the transformer (20) is a magnetic assist switch (18), which improves the operating characteristics of the solid state switch (16). Directly connected to the magnetic assist switch (18) is a reset bias circuit (22), which provides a reset bias signal and improves the operating characteristics of the assist switch (18). The same circuit, connected to a turn of the assist switch (18), also provides a bias reset signal to the tranformer (20), thereby eliminating the need for additional bias circuitry for the component.
