Hi,
I would be grateful for some ideas on how to best switch the output of
a power amplifier ON for the transmission of a waveform burst
(underwater ping) then OFF (approximately 1 second pulse repetition
frequency, 5-10 ms pulse duration). The output will be +- 100 Volt
peak-to-peak. To prevent quiesent noise during the off time, we want
the amplifier disconnected from the load. The waveform will be
generated by an Arbitrary Waveform Generator.
We don't want to use mechanical relays for reliability and bounce
issues.
Thanks in advance for any ideas!
Any proper terminology for this application, and/or applicable
semiconductor devices to use would also be helpful to facilitate my
internet research.
Victor
