    Abstract: An ultrasonic transducer that can include a driver side and a bias voltage side. A higher voltage source can be electrically connected to the bias voltage side through a first resistor. A lower voltage source can be electrically connected to the driver side of through a second resistor. A field effect transistor or other suitable switch can be included, having a source, a gate and a drain. The source can be electrically connected to ground and the gate can be electrically connected to a control signal source. The drain can be electrically connected to the lower voltage source through a second resistor and be electrically connected to the driver side of the ultrasonic transducer. The gate can be electrically connected to a signal source through a third resistor.

    Abstract: An array of ultrasonic transducers can be controlled to produce a steerable beam. Beam steering can be skewed by buffer delays in the distribution of a clock signal. The skew can be at least approximately linearized by distributing the clock signal in a diagonal fashion across an array of buffers corresponding to ultrasonic transducer controllers. Potential error in beam steering that can arise from clock skew can be corrected based on the linear tilt.

    Abstract: A first controller can have a greater number of output lines than a second controller has input lines. The first controller can receive an ultrasonic transducer control signal and provide a first portion of the control signal to the first processor, where the length of the first portion is less than or equal to the number of input lines of the second processor. The first processor can send portions of the control signal to a plurality of second processors. Each of the plurality of second processors can have a number of input lines less than the number of output lines of the first processor. Portions of the control signal can be sent through the output lines of the first processor to the plurality of second processors at substantially the same time.
