Abstract
An ultrasonic generator has an output circuit for delivering ultrasonic power to a load through a transducer, the generator having an amplitude control input coupled to the output of a comparator, the inputs of which are coupled to a user interface circuit. The output circuit produces voltage and current signals which are applied to a multiplier in the interface circuit, which produces a power signal applied to an error input of the comparator, the interface circuit also having a signal processor which receives a user-input reference and applies it to a reference input of the comparator. The output of the comparator regulates the power output of the generator to the reference level, and is also coupled to an indicator circuit for providing an visual indication of whether or not the apparatus is in regulation.
