    摘要: A method for controlling an electrosurgical generator includes generating at least one electrosurgical waveform at a selected energy setting through an RF output stage comprising an RF inverter coupled to a power source. The at least one electrosurgical waveform has a duty cycle and a crest factor. The method also includes adjusting a repetition rate of the at least one electrosurgical waveform based on the selected energy setting to regulate the duty cycle of the at least one electrosurgical waveform. The method also includes applying the at least one electrosurgical waveform to tissue through at least one electrode and measuring an output voltage of the at least one electrosurgical waveform. The method also includes supplying a control signal to the RF inverter based on the repetition rate when the output voltage is increasing to regulate the crest factor of the at least one electrosurgical waveform.
