Abstract

See full text

An electrosurgical system includes an electrosurgical generator, a power source configured to deliver power to at least one load connected to the generator, a master configured to generate an initial pulse, and a plurality of slaves connected in series to the master. The initial pulse cooperates with a first floating power supply configured to create an electrical connection between at least one first load and the power source. A first slave is configured to generate a subsequent pulse based on the initial pulse. The subsequent pulse cooperates with a second floating power supply configured to create an electrical connection between at least one second load and the power source. The subsequent pulse is configured to cause an ensuing slave to generate an additional pulse. The additional pulse cooperates with a corresponding floating power supply configured to create an electrical connection between at least one additional load and the power source.
