A device for generating oscillating signals includes an energy transfer device configured to apply an oscillating signal to a sensitive volume, and a resonant tuning circuit including the energy transfer device. The tuning circuit includes a tuning capacitor configured to cause the tuning circuit to resonate at a selected frequency, and an energy storage device. The transmitting device also includes a controller configured to apply a pulse sequence to the tuning circuit having a series of pulses, the energy storage device configured to retain electrical energy at an end of a first pulse, and discharge the electrical energy to the tuning circuit at an onset of a next pulse of the pulse sequence.

Efficient damped pulsed energy transmitter

Methods and logging systems for performing nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) logging in downhole operations are described. The methods include performing a scout logging acquisition operation using an NMR logging tool to determine NMR logging parameters of a formation interval, setting an NMR logging acquisition mode based on the NMR logging parameters from the scout logging acquisition operation, and performing an NMR data logging operation to determine properties of the formation interval based on the set NMR logging acquisition mode.

A switch driving circuit includes an output coil having a first end and a second end and configured to receive positive or negative pulses from an input coil and a drive portion that includes a holding capacitor coupled across the output coil. The circuit also includes a discharge circuit that includes a discharge switch connected across the output coil, the discharge circuit having a discharge resistor and a discharge capacitor connected in parallel with each other and across control terminals of the discharge switch and a shunt circuit connected across the output coil that shorts the first end to the second end after a positive pulse is received.
