Claim 9:
10. A capacitor-array apparatus for use in generating therapeutic shock waves, comprising:
one or more circuit boards each circuit board of the one or more circuit boards having a first side and a second side; and
a plurality of first capacitor sets coupled to the one or more circuit boards, each of the first capacitor sets comprising two or more first capacitors connected in series and arranged in a first pattern;
a plurality of second capacitor sets coupled to the one or more circuit boards, each of the second capacitor sets comprising two or more second capacitors connected in series and arranged in a second pattern;
where each of the plurality of first capacitor sets are connected in parallel, and each of the plurality of second capacitor sets are connected in parallel; and
where the one or more circuit boards are configured to be coupled to an electrode such that the electrode is in electrical communication with the first and second capacitor sets; and
where the plurality of first capacitor sets, the plurality of second capacitor sets, and the electrode simultaneously receive voltage pulses via a pulse generation system.
