A light emitter drive circuit for an oximeter which utilizes a single inductor for driving multiple light emitters. The inductor is connected to a switching circuit to multiple energy storage circuits, such as capacitors. These are alternately charged up, using the same inductor. Subsequently, the capacitors are alternatively discharged for their corresponding light emitters through he same inductor. Also, the magnetic susceptibility of the LED drive circuit is reduced by using magnetic flux canceling in the inductor. In one embodiment, a toroidal inductor is used with geometric symmetry and its magnetic flux. In other embodiment, a dual core closed bobbin shielded inductor is used.
