This thesis focuses on the design, simulation, and assembly of a compact, portable, and optionally wearable voltage conversion device for electrical stimulation applications. The device is engineered to be small and battery-powered, potentially taking the form of a smartwatch. It is capable of generating a monophasic waveform with high voltage pulses, adjustable from 50 V to 15 kV, and is operated through two on-board touchscreens and a user-friendly interface. The thesis includes comprehensive documentation of the device's manufacturing process and testing procedures. The device is intended to enhance the application of various electro-stimulation therapies by providing a versatile, portable solution for clinical and experimental use.
