ADJUSTABLE HIGH CURRENT AND HIGH VOLTAGE PULSE GENERATOR

摘要

A controllable pulse generator apparatus and method are provided according to the invention. The pulse generator generates an adjustable, high current, high voltage pulse train output that may be transmitted to an external device under operation. The pulse generator includes a controller device and a pulse generator device. The controller device accepts one or more pulse train requests, may accept one or more external signals, and may accept feedback from the device under operation. The controller device generates one or more pulse train signals in response to the pulse train requests, the external signals, and the feedback. The controller device transmits the one or more pulse train signals to the pulse generator device. The pulse generator device receives the one or more pulse train signals and in response generates a pulse train output of a predetermined current level and of a predetermined voltage level according to the one or more pulse train signals.
