About the Company:

Since 1998, Applied Physical Electronics, L.C. (APELC) has led the scientific research and development of electromagnetic pulsed power interference and compatibility products. We work alongside defense, test and evaluation and commercial industries to recreate accurate threat-level waveforms for disrupting and disabling evolving threats before they occur, as well as testing systems for vulnerabilities.

APELC made a name for itself early on with the development of compact, deployable Marx Generators. Since then, our designers continue to produce the most accurate waveform and output pulses with ultrafast rise-times, moderate pulse-widths, and amplitudes ranging from kilovolts to megavolts.

We specialize in partnering with our customers to develop the most advanced and reliable seamless waveform and pulse solutions that resist threats.
