The modular electrosurgical generator platform (100) also includes a host controller module (130) to control a type and a number of energy modalities, a comparator (24) for comparing the first phase of the first waveform (710) with the second phase of the second waveform (720) in one or more of a plurality of sub-periods and an adjustment module (250) for adjusting a relative phase between the first and second waveforms (710, 720) based on results obtained from the comparator (240).1/20 100 Modular Electrosurgical Generator Platform 110 120 130 Power Supply] Energy ___Host Controller Module Module Module Peripherals Backplane 150 140 FIG. 1
