Description
The TX-SDK-V2 Ultrasound Transmit Solution Evaluation Board demonstrates a comprehensive transmit-side signal path featuring:
- LM96530 Octal T/R Switch
- LM96550 Octal High Voltage Pulser
- LM96570 Octal Digital Beamformer
The digital beamformer serves as the onboard signal generator by outputting programmable digital pulse patterns (an external 40MHz VCXO is included to drive the internal PLL of the beamformer). These output pulse patterns then drive the inputs of the high voltage pulser. The pulser outputs drive both the inputs of the T/R switch, as well as SMA connectors for measuring the high voltage pulsers performance. The outputs of the T/R switches also drive SMA connector output ports for measuring their performance, such as cross-talk. The board can also be configured for individual device evaluation of the LM96530 T/R Switch and LM96550 Pulser.
The LM96530 T/R Switch LM96550 Pulser and LM96570 Digital Beamformer are controlled by a PC driven software GUI using an Opal Kelly FPGA module.
8 RF connector output ports for:- measuring the outputs of the LM96550 HV Pulser
- directly driving an ultrasound transducer probe
- driving the inputs of the LM96530 T/R Switch
- measuring the outputs of the LM96530 T/R Switch
- directly driving an ultrasound Rx analog front end
