    Abstract: Recent advancements in power electronics technology have provided opportunities for enhancements to implantable medical device circuits. The enhancements have contributed to increasing circuit miniaturization and increased efficiency in the operation of the implantable medical devices. Stimulation therapy waveforms generated by the circuits include a stepped leading-edge that may be shaped having a varying slope and varying amplitudes associated with each of the segments of the slope. A charging circuit having a single primary transformer winding and a single secondary transformer winding that is coupled to a plurality of capacitors is utilized to generate the therapy stimulation waveforms. The stimulation waveform of the present disclosure may be dynamically shaped as a function of an individual patient's response. Such stimulation waveforms facilitate achieving lower capture thresholds which reduces the device's supply consumption thereby increasing longevity of the device and facilitate a reduction of tissue damage.
