    Abstract: An apparatus comprises a transceiver (Tx/Rx) printed circuit board (PCB) with a top surface and a bottom surface and a power supply PCB. The Tx/Rx PCB includes two transmitter devices, each comprising a number N of channels. A first transmitter device is arranged on the bottom surface and a second transmitter device is arranged on the top surface over the first transmitter device. One or more pins of the second transmitter device are shorted with one or more pins of the first transmitter device with the same function. An analog front end (AFE) device comprising N input channels is arranged on the top surface of the Tx/Rx PCB, and a digital signal processor is coupled to the AFE device. The power supply PCB comprises a power supply module configured to provide a plurality of supply voltages to the Tx/Rx PCB and the power supply PCB.

    Abstract: In some examples, a pulser circuit is configured to provide a pulse signal in a first operational state, pre-charge components of the pulser circuit via a first signal path in a second operational state following the first operational state, wherein the first signal path includes first components having a first voltage tolerance and second components having a second voltage tolerance, the first voltage tolerance being less than the second voltage tolerance, and discharge a voltage of the pulser circuit to ground in a third operational state between the first operational state and the second operational state, and following the second operational state.
