1 Introduction to Ultrasound Transmitters

Ultrasound imaging is a widely popular technology that uses high frequency sound waves to produce images of structures inside the body. The technology is non-invasive, safe and uses non-ionizing radiation (sound waves) for imaging. Figure 1-1 shows the overall block diagram of an ultrasound system. Transmitters are one of the key components in an ultrasound system which are used to generate high voltage signals that are required to excite the transducer. The transducer converts the received electrical impulse from the transmitter and converts the impulse into sound waves and vice-versa during imaging.
