Abstract: A polarizing DC voltage is generated at the capacitance of an ultrasonic transducer and then short circuited by a parallelly arranged electronic switch controlled by the command signal frequency to be radiated. A direct current stored in an inductance during the shorting phase is supplied by way of a decoupling diode to the electrodes to the electrostatic transducer upon opening of the switch thereby generating a polarizing DC voltage for the transducer which is regenerated periodically. For achieving additional energy recuperation, a booster capacitor is disposed in series with the inductance and a booster diode is connected in parallel with the booster capacitor and a portion of the inductance.

Abstract: An ultrasound imaging system has an array of ultrasound transducers comprising a set of sub-arrays of transducers. Each transducer (100) has an analogue buffer (106). Each sub-array of transducers has a signal path (102, 104) from within the array of ultrasound transducers to outside the array of ultrasound transducers which comprises one or more hops between the buffers (106). To reduce the signal line length from inside the array of ultrasound transducers to the periphery, at least some multiple hops between buffers (106) are provided. Each buffer hop introduces a delay, but prevents signal degradation so that a large number of analog signals can be transmitted across the large area ASIC of the transducer array.
