An arrangement of a mother circuit board and daughter circuit boards in a power instrument improves current and voltage capabilities. A mother board is mounted to a base panel of an enclosure, and a number of daughter boards are attached to and extend from the mother board. Each daughter board has substantially identical circuitry and produces substantially the same amount of current. The daughter boards together provide a total output current equal to a sum of each individually generated current. The amount of power generated by the instrument can be increased by attaching additional daughter boards to the mother board. The total current produced by the daughter boards is provided to and output from the mother board via a low inductance output path. The low inductance output path ensures that a sudden increase in current does not result in a large voltage spike that adversely affects instrument operation.
