In an ultrasound transmit ASIC, the rise and fall times of the output pulse can be controlled by varying the gate-source voltage used to drive the output-stage transistors. Control of the rise/fall times can be effected either by trimming on-chip during fabrication or by changing the gate-source voltage that drives the output-stage transistors, either on-chip or off-chip. In all cases it will be necessary to first test the manufactured device to determine how much calibration voltage needs to be applied.
