Title: unipolar HV pulser
Post by XY-oriented on May 1^st, 2008, 5:47am

Hi all,
I want to design an unipolar HV pulser (up to 60V maybe !) driving a PZT transducer, this is my first time I have to design a High voltage circuit... so my questions are :
- what kind of topology is needed (I have a very limited area and power budget)? is a HV level shifter a good idea ?
- how to manage LV-HV interface ?

any suggestion about reliability is very helpful
thanks
