Latest Patents

Frank Heine holds a patent for a "Power supply ignition system and method." This invention comprises a plasma processing system that includes a plasma chamber, a generator, a feedback component, and a controller. The feedback component is designed to receive at least one first signal that reflects the power signal supplied from the generator to the chamber. A feedback output emits a second signal to the controller, which then supplies a third signal to the power generator. This third signal is configured to control the power generator to supply the power signal at a specific power level for various processing applications. The power generator is also controlled by the controller to either reduce or remove power from the plasma processing chamber and subsequently increase the voltage level until the power level reaches a threshold. The generator is further modulated until the voltage returns to a first voltage level. Frank Heine's patent is a testament to his innovative spirit and technical expertise, with 1 patent to his name.
