A better understanding of semiconductor bridge (SCB) discharge behavior under different firing conditions was crucial to revealing the mechanism of the SCB ignition technique. In this paper, the tests on the basic parameters, including the onset time, duration time, temperature, and electron density of SCB plasma, were carried out. A simpler and more economical system was used to discuss the characteristics of SCB plasma under the different input energy conditions.
