    Abstract: A system and method for operating an implanted medical device (IMD) based on a waveform player. In one arrangement, the IMD may comprise a first module operative to effectuate a communication interface with an external device for receiving a plurality of program records for storage in a persistent memory, the program records each comprising a plurality of pulse definitions and a plurality of time interval definitions, wherein a pulse definition comprises a set of pulse characteristics to be applied in a particular time interval. A second module may be communicatively coupled to the first module, the second module including a buffer for containing a runtime image of a selected program record loaded from the persistent memory. A waveform player provided as part of the second module is operative to interpret the runtime image to generate control signals to drive an output driver circuit for applying pulse characteristics to a select set of electrodes according to the pulse definitions of the selected program record.
