For example, as shown in FIG. 3, port I is a digital pulse train input and port E x~E0 is a switch select input. When the pulse currently input to the port I is the m (0= < m < = n, n is the number of cathode units described below) th pulse in the digital pulse train signal, the binary code of the value m is input to the port E x~E0 at the rising edge of the m-th pulse, the Y m -th switch is selected to be turned on to output the first pulse signal, and the remaining switches are turned off to output the low level signal.

A cathode unit connected to the pulse generating unit outputting the second pulse signal generates a cathode pulse signal based on the second pulse signal. It should be noted that the pulse selection circuit 320 includes the number of switches greater than or equal to the number of cathode cells. When the pulse selection circuit 320 includes a greater number of switches than the number of cathode cells, a binary bit 0 may be input to the unused switches.
The plurality of cathode units in the cathode module 340 respectively output cathode pulse signals, and since only one cathode unit is activated at each time, the plurality of cathode pulse signals may be integrated into a composite pulse train signal to correspond to the pulse train signal input to the pulse selection circuit.

One end of the sampling resistor Rs may be connected to the pulse generating circuit 330 and the ground voltage, and the other end of the sampling resistor Rs may be connected to the cathode block 340 and the preprocessor 370. The preprocessor 370 may be coupled to the cathode module 340 and may be configured to preprocess (e.g., amplify, impedance transform, etc.) the synthesized pulse train signal output by the cathode module 340 to generate a preprocessed synthesized pulse train signal. Analog-to-digital converter 380 may be coupled to preprocessor 370 and may be configured to analog-to-digital convert the preprocessed signal to generate a digital composite pulse train signal and output the generated digital composite pulse train signal to controller 310.
The controller 310 may be further configured to receive the generated digital composite pulse train signal, calculate an output current pulse train signal of the cathode module 340 (i.e., an actual emission current of the cathode unit) according to the digital composite pulse train signal and the resistance value of the sampling resistor Rs, compare the output current pulse train signal with a reference current pulse train signal stored in the controller 340, and output the comparison result to the digital-to-analog converter 350. It should be noted that each pulse value output from the analog-to-digital converter 380 needs to be correlated with the number of pulse train signals to distinguish the pulse currents (emission currents) of different cathode units.
The controller may also include a communication interface. The communication interface may be configured to receive a parameter configuration (e.g., duty cycle, frequency, transmit current value, etc. of the digital current pulse train) and obtain a reference current pulse train signal according to the parameter configuration for comparison with the actual transmit current to adjust the output value of the digital-to-analog converter for purposes of stabilizing the transmit current. The controller includes, but is not limited to, a single-chip microcomputer, DSP, FPGA, CPLD, and any combination thereof.
The digital-to-analog converter 350 may be further configured to receive the comparison result, adjust the amplitude of the analog pulse train signal according to the comparison result, and output the adjusted analog pulse train signal to the first operational amplifier 360.
