The invention relates to a modular pulse source consisting of a main module and at least one additional module which are connected in series to each other in the sense of two-terminal circuits. The modules each comprise an energy storage device. The energy storage device of the main module is initially charged by a charging circuit. A stimulation coil is connected at the two ends of the series connection and as a result of a voltage pulse delivered by the chain of modules generates a magnetic field which in turn causes an induced electrical pulse or a respective electric field.
