An apparatus for electrically stimulating a smart material includes a controllable power source for charging the smart material and/or switching circuitry for discharging the smart material. The controllable power source includes a regulated DC to DC converter having controllable drive circuitry associated therewith. The drive circuitry can be self-oscillating through associated feedback means. The switching circuitry can be responsive to one or more control signals.

L'invention concerne un appareil destiné à stimuler électriquement un matériau intelligent comprenant une source d'alimentation à régulation servant à charger le matériau intelligent et/ou à commuter l'électronique afin de décharger le matériau intelligent. La source d'alimentation à régulation comporte un convertisseur CC vers CC régulé auquel est associée une électronique d'entraînement à régulation. L'électronique d'entraînement peut devenir auto-oscillante grâce à des moyens associés de rétroaction. L'électronique de commutation peut être sensible à un ou à plusieurs signaux de commande.
