General Description

The Supertex MD1211 is a high speed, dual MOSFET driver. It is designed to drive high voltage N- and P-channel MOSFET transistors for medical ultrasound and other applications requiring a high output current for a capacitive load. The high-speed input stage of the MD1211 can operate from 1.2 to 5.0 volt logic interface with an optimum operating input signal range of 1.8 to 3.3 volts. The level translator uses a proprietary circuit, which provides DC coupling together with high-speed operation.
