Ramped current

Can you please explain what ramped current is?

If, instead of supplying the current vertically, as is the case with a rectagular pulse, it is supplied in a slowly progressive manner (ramped current and triangular pulse), the intensity that has to be achieved to obtain excitation must be higher.

Hi Antonija; A ramp is a long and wide piece of metal or wood where one end is placed on the end of a trailer and the other end lies on the ground. This makes a slanting surface for driving a car from the ground onto the trailer. I assume that a ramped current is the shape of the function of current intensity versus time - it increases gradually from 0 to some higher level.
