Abstract
RF generators including active devices driving series resonant circuits are described. The series resonant circuits include a self-resonant dual inductor. The RF generators can be used to drive capacitive loads.
Claims12
An RF circuit for providing a radio frequency signal, the circuit comprising:
- a dual inductor including one winding including an input and an output, and another winding including an input and an output;
- wherein the one winding and the another winding are arranged to provide, between the one winding and the another winding, a parasitic capacitance selected to determine the frequency of the radio frequency signal;
- and
- wherein the outputs of the windings are configured to electrically couple to a capacitive load.
