ABSTRACT:
A pulse generator for use in a defibrillator provides cardioverting electrical energy to a heart through at least one lead having a pair of electrodes associated with the heart. Electrical energy is applied to the heart with a biphasic waveform having a first cardioverting phase and a second cardioverting phase. A crosspoint switch selectively couples a storage capacitor to the lead means. A master switch decouples the crosspoint switch from the storage capacitor while the crosspoint switch connections are changed between the first cardioverting phase and the second cardioverting phase. A control circuit provides independent control of the duration of both the first and second cardioverting phases.
