Latest Patents
Sturman's latest patents include a "Method and apparatus for low power, regulated output in battery powered electrotherapy devices." This invention is designed to control the discharge of a battery supplying an intermittent load, such as a nerve stimulation device. The device features a controller that operates a switched inductor to feed a capacitor with numerous small pulses from the battery. This process builds up the charge and voltage on the capacitor, which is then discharged to a load. The capacitor discharge occurs at a higher current than the small pulses from the battery, allowing the battery to be drained at small instantaneous discharge rates compared to the high instantaneous discharge current from the capacitor.
Another patent by Sturman is also titled "Method and apparatus for low power regulated output in battery powered." This invention shares similar functionality, focusing on the efficient management of battery discharge for devices like nerve stimulators.
