Abstract
Some embodiments are directed to a tuning circuit. The tuning circuit generally includes: a first impedance coupled between a first terminal and a second terminal of the tuning circuit, wherein the first terminal is coupled to a generator and the second terminal is coupled to a load; a second impedance coupled between the first impedance of the tuning circuit and a reference potential node; and a signal path coupled to the first impedance or the second impedance, the signal path comprising an inductive element and a first switch coupled to the inductive element, wherein a control input of the first switch is coupled to a control input of the tuning circuit configured to receive a control signal associated with a pulsed voltage (PV) waveform.
