Design and Implementation of New Converter Topology for Electrosurgical Units

Abstract

Electrosurgery is the process in which high frequency current is applied to human body part for the purpose of surgical operations like cutting, dessication, fulguration etc. While performing electrosurgery, output power from the electrosurgical generator must be kept constant to avoid charring of tissue. This project aims at designing and implementing a converter and controller topology for regulating power by keeping its value within the required power characteristics. The model is designed and initially implemented in MATLAB/SIMULINK by using blocks from Sim Power Systems tool box, then a hardware prototype is built at a frequency of 34kHz.
