Abstract: Electronic apparatus (100) for delivering Coherent Sine Burst Irreversible Electroporation energy to a biological tissue (1) comprises at least one electrode (3) positionable on or near the biological tissue (1), a power generator (2) for supplying electric energy to the electrode (3), and to generate a respective electric signal (S) to energize the electrode (3). The electric signal (S) is formed by alternating over time a first electric signal (S1) with a second electric signal (S2), with each first electric signal (S1) being the same. The first electric signal (S1) is supplied to electrode (3) during a first time interval (T1) and the second electric signal (S2) is supplied to electrode (3) during a second time interval (T2), subsequent to the first time interval (T1). The first electric signal (S1) is a continuous bipolar signal which comprises two or more basic sine waves (SB) in the first time interval (T1).
