Output Configuration
Three output topologies — Classic, Seesaw, and Bridge — selected based on your application at no extra charge. All part of the platform.

Classic Topology
Single switching electrode with a fixed reference at ground. Unipolar or bipolar output.
Read more → -
Seesaw Topology
Alternating which electrode is active between pulses. Bipolar output with matched positive and negative phases.
Read more → -
Bridge Topology
Both electrodes always active at complementary voltages. Unipolar (differential) or bipolar with independent phase control.

Arbitrary Sequencing
Complete freedom over pulse timing and order. Positive, negative, or bipolar pulses — and the gaps between them — placed exactly where the protocol calls for it. Standard on all applicable systems.

Burst Mode
A defined group of rapid pulses at the start of each main-frequency period. Available for unipolar, bipolar, and arbitrary pulse patterns.

Overcurrent Protection
Fixed-threshold overcurrent protection standard on all systems. Protects both the system and the load from fault conditions.

Advanced Pulse Features
Configurable capabilities that extend the pulse waveform — added based on your application requirements.
-
Constant Current
Maintains a set current regardless of load impedance changes during the pulse — critical for applications like electroporation where tissue impedance shifts during treatment.

Multi-Channel Systems
Multiple synchronised outputs from a single controller, with option for independent amplitudes per channel — from 8-channel parallel setups to 100-channel matrix architectures.

High Continuous Frequency
Sustained high repetition rate with oil cooling for thermal demands. Essential for plasma applications and continuous-flow PEF processing.

Adjustable Rise Times
Software-selectable rise times from sub-10 ns to microsecond range. The leading edge determines which biological or physical mechanisms are activated.

Steps Function
Stages switch one at a time instead of simultaneously, enabling staircase waveforms and discrete voltage stepping within a single pulse event.
Read more → -
Asymmetric Amplitudes
Bipolar pulses with different voltage levels for positive and negative swings — useful where asymmetric energy delivery affects biological or physical outcomes.
Read more → -
Sawtooth/Ramp Generation
Constant-current charging produces a linear voltage ramp, then rapid solid-state discharge — a sawtooth waveform in both polarities. Originated for Flux Reset Transformer applications.

Advanced Monitoring & Control
Measurement, integration, and protection options for demanding applications and automated environments.
-
Real-Time Voltage & Current Measurement
Built-in output diagnostics that verify delivered pulses match programmed parameters and monitor load response in real time.

Multi-Frequency Impedance Measurement
Characterise load impedance across a frequency range between pulses. Particularly valuable for biological applications where impedance is frequency-dependent.

Remote API Control
Programmatic control from external software — enables automation, integration into control systems, and reproducible experimental protocols.

Adjustable Overcurrent Protection
Adjustable overcurrent protection threshold allows you to set the protection level appropriate for your specific load and application.

External Trigger Input
Synchronise the pulse generator with external events. Includes programmable trigger delay and countdown mode for precise integration into larger setups.

External Trigger Output
The system outputs a trigger signal on each pulse for synchronising downstream equipment — cameras, diagnostics, or secondary processes.

External Signal Input
Low-voltage arbitrary signal in, high-voltage reproduction out. The system acts as a high-voltage waveform amplifier at your specified output level.
