The type of microprocessor we used was an XMEGA. In some pictures you see a typical mosfet based H-Bridge. The final design we used an off-the-shelf IC for the high voltage side. Not much else to tell really, there are a few 24 volt relays, a bridge rectifier, a capacitor, and some fuses. The final design had two boards - the main high voltage switching board and a low voltage microprocessor based control board.
If anyone has questions I'd be happy to answer, or try my best within reason.
