Continuous-wave (CW) applications are supported for low power consumption down to VPP = -VNN = 3.3V with
Mode =HI.
Internally, the CMOS logic input signals are level shifted to VDD = 10V and VDN = -10V for pulse transmission.
The outputs of the level shifter drive the high-voltage P and N drivers that control the output power MOSFETs,
which are supplied from the positive and negative rails VPP and VNN, respectively. The high-voltage rails are
designed for a maximum of 50V; however, they can be operated down to 3.3V. The necessary gate-overdrive
voltage levels for the output drivers are internally generated from the high-voltage rails.
Over-Temperature Protection (OTP) is implemented by continuously monitoring the on-chip temperature. The
OTP output (open drain) pin goes LO when the chip temperature exceeds a critical level. Prior to this event, the
user must ensure that the chip is powered down before fatal damage occurs. In addition to a primary software
controlled safety shutdown, the OTP pin can be also be hard-wired to the EN pin as a secondary safety
measure.
