This paper contains results on the design of electrical signals for delivering charge through electrodes to achieve neural stimulation. A generalization of the usual constant current stimulation phase to a stepped current waveform is presented. The electrode current design is then formulated as the calculation of the current step sizes to minimize the peak electrode voltage while delivering a specified charge in a given number of time steps. This design problem can be formulated as a finite linear program, or alternatively by using techniques for discrete-time linear system design.
