ALEXANDRIA, Va., Dec. 23 -- United States Patent no. 12,505,983, issued on Dec. 23, was assigned to Advanced Energy Industries Inc. (Denver).
"Generator with controllable source impedance" was invented by Gennady G. Gurov (Loveland, Colo.), Michael Mueller (Loveland, Colo.) and Zebulun Whitman Benham (Fort Collins, Colo.).
According to the abstract* released by the U.S. Patent & Trademark Office: "A power supply system controls the source impedance of a generator in real time utilizing two amplifiers having asymmetrical power profiles in reference to a nominal load impedance that are diametrically opposite in reference to the nominal load impedance. Variations in power profiles may be achieved by using different topologies for each of the...
