His very first SSTC. A 555 kicks it into oscillation, an antenna reads the secondary's polarity, a MAX913 squares it up, a 74HC14 buffers it, and four MAX4420/4429 gate drivers run a half-bridge. “Some say that I was lucky for this SSTC to work so well for my first time and I would agree.” If you build from the sheets, note that his text and his schematic disagree. The page text says the gate-driver bridge is “2x MAX4420 and 2x MAX4429” feeding a transformer with a “14 turn primary and 2 x 18 turn secondary”. Page 2 of his own schematic draws TL4420s and TL4429s into a 15:15:15 one. Both are his.
