Description
This monolithic, high-voltage, high-speed pulser
generator features four independent channels. It
is designed for medical ultrasound imaging
applications, but it can also be used for driving
other piezoelectric, capacitive or MEMS based
transducers. The STHV748 comprises a
controller logic interface circuit, level translators,
MOSFET gate drivers, noise blocking diodes, and
high-power P-channel and N-channel MOSFETs
as the output stage for each channel, clampingto-ground circuitry, anti-leakage, anti-memory
effect block, thermal sensor, and a T/R switch
which guarantees an effective decoupling during
the transmission phase. Moreover, the STHV748
includes self-biasing and thermal shutdown
blocks. Each channel can support up to five active
output levels with two half bridges. The output
stage of each channel is able to provide ±2 A
peak output current. In order to reduce power
dissipation during continuous wave mode, a
dedicated half bridge is available and the peak
current is limited to 0.6 A.
 2.4 V to 3.6 V CMOS logic interface
 Auxiliary integrated circuits
– Noise blocking diodes
– Fully self-biasing architecture
– Anti-memory effect for all internal HV
nodes

Additional pin description
The INT_BIAS pin enables the internal reference generators. With INT_BIAS=DVDD, the
STHV748 internally generates the reference voltages on REF_HVP1/0 (pin - 7, 10, 39, 42)
and REF_HVM1/0 (pin - 2, 15, 34, 47). These voltages are set at VDDP below HVP and
respectively at:

REF_HVM# = HVM# + VDDP

REF_HVP# = HVP# - VDDP
After enabling INT_BIAS, a period of time is needed to charge the external reference
capacitors (about 30 µs in a typical application).
Should INT_BIAS=DGND, it is necessary to apply an external voltage reference to the
REF_HVM# and REF_HVP# pins.
THSD is a thermal flag. Being the output stage of the THSD a Nch-MOS open-drain, an
external pull-up resist or (Rp10 k) connected to a positive low-voltage supply (see
Figure 1) is required. If the internal temperature surpasses 153 °C, THSD goes down and all
STHV748 channels are in HZ state. The thermal protection can be disabled, by connecting
6/29
DocID15450 Rev 5
STHV748
Pin settings
the THSD pin to a positive low voltage supply. THSD can be also shared among several
STHV748 on the same PCB.
D_CTR can be used to optimize 2nd HD performances by tuning the fall propagation delay
(tdf - see Table 9). If D_CTR is equal to ground, tdf has the nominal value. If D_CTR is
varied from 2 V to 4.2 V, tdf can be changed from -1 ns to +600 ps with respect to the
nominal value.
The exposed-pad is internally connected to the substrate of the package. It can be either left
floating or connected to a ground via 100 V capacitance toward ground, in order to reduce
the noise during the receiving phase.

Power-up / Power-down voltage sequence
During the power up/power down phases, the following relationship must be always
respected:

VDDP >= DVDD

HVM0 <= HVM1

HVP0 >= HVP1
It is recommended to power up the low voltage supplies before the high voltage supplies.
