Abstract
A controller is configured to determine a first amount of current associated with a first power level. The controller is configured further to generate a digital pulse signal based on the first amount of current, where the digital pulse signal may have a second power level and an associated duty cycle. The controller is configured further to convert the digital pulse signal into a second amount of current and output the second amount of current as a pulse signal based on the duty cycle.
