Abstract
A transmitter/receiver apparatus including: a transmitter/receiver terminal; a switching amplifier that includes a low-side switching element connected between a ground terminal and a pulse output terminal and a high-side switching element connected between the pulse output terminal and a power supply terminal and that outputs a pulse signal from the pulse output terminal; a filter that passes therethrough and outputs as a transmitted signal a predetermined frequency component of the pulse signal from a transmitter terminal; and a transmit/receive switch unit that switches the connection status between the transmitter/receiver terminal and the transmitter terminal and also switches the connection status between the transmitter/receiver terminal and a receiver terminal. During receiving, on the basis of the connection status between the transmitter/receiver terminal and the transmitter terminal, the low-side and high-side switching elements are fixed to conductive and non-conductive states, respectively, to non-conductive and conductive states, respectively, or both to non-conductive states.
