Four Channel, High Speed ±70V 2.0A
Ultrasound RTZ Pulser
Features
General Description
► HVCMOS technology for high performance
► High density integrated ultrasound transmitter
► 0 to ±70V output voltage
The Supertex HV7331 is a four-channel, monolithic, high voltage,
high speed pulse generator with built in fast return to zero damping
FETs. This high voltage and high-speed integrated circuit is
designed for portable medical ultrasound imaging devices, and can
also be used for NDT applications.
► ±2.0A source and sink minimum pulse current
► Up to 20MHz operation frequency
► ±2.5ns matched delay times
► 2.5 to 5.0V CMOS logic interface
► Built-in output drain diode and bleed resistors
► CW/RTZ Doppler quick switching
► Two damping mode options
The HV7331 consists of a controller logic interface circuit, level
translators, MOSFETgatedrives, andhighcurrentpowerP-channel
and N-channel MOSFETs as the output stage for each channel.
The peak output currents of each channel are guaranteed to be
over 2.0A with up to a ±70V pulse swing. The integrated regulators
for the gate drivers not only saves two floating voltage supplies, but
also makes the PCB layout easier. The split common source for
the P or N damping MOSFETs provide pulse or CW Doppler mode
quick switch-over for cost and power savings.
Applications
► Portable medical ultrasound imaging
► Piezoelectric transducer drivers
► NDT ultrasound transmission
► Pulse waveform generator
