Abstract
A system for supplying high voltage direct current for Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) devices under program control features a rate input that commands the power supply to charge the discharge capacitors at a fixed rate until a programmed target voltage is achieved. This reduced demand spikes to the AC line when operating the TMS device, and may allow the TMS device to operate from a lower-rated AC circuit than would otherwise be possible.
