Application 10/461,709
each said Buck converter circuit in interleaved fashion to
produce a controllable pulse across said load; and,
f. wherein said first and second Buck converters are arranged
such that a unidirectional current pulse is generated across said
load.
57. A circuit for providing an electrical pulse to a load, comprising:
a. a first Buck converter circuit;
b. a second Buck converter circuit connected to said first Buck
converter circuit, each said Buck converter circuit adapted to
receive a user selectable current command signal for controlling
the magnitude of said electrical pulse generated across said
load;
c. means for applying a voltage across said first and said second
Buck converter circuits;
d. a capacitor connected in parallel with said voltage means for
reducing ripple in said voltage across said first and said second
Buck converter circuits;
e. a synchronization controller operationally connected to each
said Buck converter circuit for initiating electrical pulses in
each said Buck converter circuit in interleaved fashion to
produce a controllable pulse across said load; and,
f. wherein each said Buck converter is electrically arranged in
serial with said load.
