Abstract
A control apparatus for a phacoemulsification system is disclosed. The control apparatus is configured to supply electrical energy to an actuator for a phaco needle during a plurality of time intervals, wherein the time intervals includes a first time interval, in which electrical energy for pulses with a constant maximum amplitude is supplied, a second time interval following the first time interval, wherein electrical energy with a value equal to zero is supplied, and a third time interval following the second time interval, wherein the third time interval has a first time duration in which electrical energy for pulses which have a lower constant amplitude than the maximum amplitude during the first time interval is supplied.
