Supertex公司的 MD1715和TC8020是高清医疗超声图像应用芯片组。MD1715是两路五级高压高速脉冲发送芯片,采用先进的CMOS技术,±4.5 到12.5V工作电压,输出电流2A,1nF负载的上升和下降时间6.5ns,传输时延10ns,1.8V-3.3V CMOS逻辑电平,而TC8020由六对高压低阈值N沟和P沟MOSFET组成,集成了栅极-源极电阻和齐纳二极管,50V时的峰值电流+/-3.5A。本文介绍了MD1715和TC8020主要特性。MD1715和TC8020典型应用电路,以及详细电路图。
The Supertex MD1715, paired with the Supertex TC8020, forms a two channel, five level, high voltage, high speed transmit pulser chip set. The chip set is designed for medical ultrasound imaging applications, but can also be used for metal flaw detection, nondestructive evaluation, and piezoelectric transducer drivers.
The MD1715 is a two channel logic controller circuit with 12 low impedance MOSFET gate drivers. There are two sets of control logic inputs, one each for channels A and B. Each channel consists of three pairs of MOSFET gate drivers. These drivers are designed to match the drive requirements of the Supertex TC8020.
The TC8020 is the output stage of the pulser, with six pairs of MOSFETs. Each pair consists of a P-channel and an N-channel MOSFET. They are designed to have the same impedance and can provide typical peak currents of ±3.5 amps at 200V.
