Abstract: A multi-level transmitter circuit with substantially constant output impedance has a capacitive transducer connected between a voltage input and ground. A first voltage path connects the voltage input to a first positive voltage source. The first voltage path is controlled by a first control signal. A second voltage path connects the voltage input to a second positive voltage source, less than the first positive voltage source. The second voltage path passes through a diode and is controlled by a second control signal. A third voltage path connects the voltage input to a third voltage source, less than ground, and is controlled by the second control signal. The impedance at the voltage input during the first control signal is substantially the same as the impedance at the voltage input during the second control signal.

Abstract: With the aim of suppressing power consumption and reducing circuit size, a positive FET is turned on in accordance with a positive pulse signal and turned off when a return voltage rises up to a positive threshold. An active ground clamp circuit causes the output line to return to the ground voltage after the elapse of a predetermined period of time. A negative FET is turned on in accordance with a negative pulse signal and turned off when the return voltage falls down to a negative threshold. The active ground clamp circuit causes the output line to return to the ground voltage after the elapse of a predetermined period of time.

Abstract: The warning tone transmitter (10) according to the invention has a piezoelectric horn element (12) with two input connectors (29, 30) for the application of the supply voltage at a determined frequency and has a circuit arrangement (14) fed from the current supply, which generates the supply voltage. In order to be able to receive confirmation that the horn signal is actually generated by the warning tone transmitter (10) and in order to be able more easily to calibrate the warning tone transmitter (10) such that it is driven at its resonant frequency the piezoelectric horn element (12) has an additional output connector (34), which, when the horn element (12) is fed with the supply voltage, generates an answering signal taken to the circuit arrangement (14) if the piezoelement is actually oscillating. The magnitude of the answering signal is a value for the sound volume of the warning tone transmitter (10).

Abstract: A method and apparatus for selecting an optimum frequency for driving a transducer in a megasonic cleaning system. The method comprises the steps of selecting a plurality of frequency values that span a frequency range containing an optimum frequency for driving a piezoelectric crystal, determining the reflection coefficient at each frequency value, fitting the data set to a function, obtaining the first derivative equation of the function, finding the roots of the first derivative equation to yield a set of roots, and selecting the optimum frequency from the set of roots. The reflection coefficient is defined as the reflected power divided by the forward power. The apparatus comprises a microprocessor, a frequency generator, a directional coupler/detector and an analog to digital converter circuit. Software running on the microprocessor uses a forward power signal and a reflected power signal from the analog to digital converter circuit to generate the reflection coefficient and to calculate the optimum frequency for driving the megasonic transducer.
