14 years agoThese work nicely for switching higher voltages from FPGA IOs:
http://www.irf.com/product-info/datasheets/data/pvg612.pdf but they're a little slow for your needs. Have you though of using a power supply MOSFET driver? For example, look at page 25 of this schematic: http://www.ovro.caltech.edu/~dwh/carma_board/gda06rb004_carma_v0.87_dec03.pdf The Texas Instruments UCC27223 are logic-level input MOSFET drivers. You could use that component, or something similar, to switch 24V pretty rapidly, you'd just need to use MOSFETs with the right voltage rating. Cheers, Dave
