Pulsed Field Ablation Power Supply Case Study

This case study details the collaboration between a medical device start-up and Advanced Energy to develop a novel Pulsed Field Ablation (PFA) system and a three-dimensional electro-anatomical navigation system. The start-up required a single output CF rated AC-DC power supply and a high voltage DC-DC converter for capacitor charging applications. The study outlines how Advanced Energy's NCF Family and High Power C Series power supplies met the demanding specifications for PFA applications. It explains the technical requirements for CF rated power supplies, including patient leakage current, isolation standards, and output power specifications. The results indicate that by utilizing Advanced Energy's solutions, the start-up was able to accelerate its development cycle, benefiting from reliable power supplies with high power density and quality. The case study concludes with the advantages provided by Advanced Energy, including expert service, short lead times for samples, and competitive total cost of ownership.
