Abstract

A multiphase resonant pulse generator (74) has N groups of N−1 switches (44,46,48) which, when activated, form N paths from a power supply (Vdc) to ground or a reference voltage. Here N is a positive integer greater than 2. Each of the paths includes an inductance (38,40,42) and N−1 switches. The signal outputs (X1,X2,X3) from each of the N paths are cross coupled to switches belonging to the other N−1 paths to active or deactivate the groups of switches.
