Abstract

The invention provides an ultrasound phased array exciting bank, comprising a pulse generator based on FPGA, a fine delay circuit, a power amplifying circuit and a protective circuit. The ultrasound phased array exciting bank consists of 8 passages, and the structure of each passage is identical. The method comprises the following steps: firstly, generating impulse waves inside the FPGA by programming; realizing delay within 10 ns after coarse delay and fine delay circuit; obtaining the high voltage pulse to stimulate the ultrasonic phased arrays transducer array elements, as the impulse wave after delay goes through the pulse amplifying circuit. The device can change impulse width and delay time flexibly and the delay precision is 1 ns.

Description

Ultrasound phased array exciting bank
One, technical field
What the present invention relates to is a kind of exciting bank, specifically a kind of hyperchannel pulsating ultrasound phased array exciting bank.
Two, technical background
The general single channel probe that uses in traditional ultrasonic testing system, single probe be for the workpiece that detects irregular or complicated shape, poor reliability, cause easily erroneous judgement or (with) fail to judge.The ultrasonic phase array detection technique then adopts a plurality of array elements to carry out Ultrasonic Detection, adopts electronic method control wave beam to focus on and scanning, has good wave beam accessibility, can not only the workpiece of irregular or complicated shape be detected, and can improve detection speed.Because each wave beam is in focus place coherence stack, the signal to noise ratio (S/N ratio) of detection signal has also had raising extremely significantly.For dynamic focusing and the deflection that realizes wave beam, need the multichannel ultrasonic phase array emission coefficient of a cover, according to encouraging each array element predetermined time delay respectively.
Key link during the ultrasonic phase array launching beam forms is that the transmitter, phase of each array element is postponed accurately to control, and obtaining flexible and controllable, directive property is good, focal spot size is tiny focus beam, thereby obtains the testee blur-free imaging.
Past general analog delay line that uses in supersonic imaging apparatus is realized phase delay, and this delayed mode has three big shortcomings: (1) is bulky, complex structure; (2) inconvenience realizes dynamic focusing and signal Processing.(3) electric parameter is difficult to stablize.New developing direction is to replace original analogue delay with digital delay, and digital delay is owing to precision height, control are convenient, and advantages such as good stability become research direction in recent years.
Three, summary of the invention
The object of the present invention is to provide a kind of pulsating ultrasound phased array exciting bank.
The object of the present invention is achieved like this: it comprises based on the formation of field programmable gate array (FPGA) launching beam device, programmable delay circuit and pulse voltage amplifying circuit and holding circuit; The adjustable pulsating wave of generation pulse width after the FPGA launching beam forms device to carry out coarse delay; In programmable delay circuit, carefully postpone then; Obtain high-voltage pulse signal de-energisation phase array transducer through the pulse voltage amplifying circuit again.
Because the present invention has adopted above design proposal, control lag time and pulse width neatly, the highest sample frequency is 100MHz, be applicable to that centre frequency is 0.1~10MHz phase array transducer, the delay precision is 1ns.
