Description

Method and device for driving ultrasonic sensor by digital sequence
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of ultrasonic detection, and relates to a method and a device for driving an ultrasonic sensor by a digital sequence. The ultrasonic excitation signal parameters in the invention are adjustable, and the invention is particularly suitable for occasions requiring different waveforms to excite the ultrasonic sensor.
Background
Ultrasonic detection is an important nondestructive detection means, and is widely developed and applied at home and abroad. In recent years, integrated circuits based on electronic science and technology have been rapidly developed, and ultrasonic detection systems are being developed toward digitization, integration, functionalization and portability on the basis of the integrated circuits. The existing ultrasonic signal excitation forms can be divided into a pulse excitation form and a coding excitation form, the pulse excitation generation mode is simple and easy to adjust, but the amplitude of the excitation pulse determines the peak acoustic power of the initial wave, and the emission energy cannot be increased without limit, so that the peak acoustic power is close to the safety limit of an ultrasonic transducer or a measured object, and the average acoustic power is still low. The average acoustic power is determined by the pulse width, and increasing the average acoustic power requires increasing the pulse width, which results in a decrease in range resolution. Therefore, the traditional single-pulse excitation has certain contradiction between the improvement of the acoustic power and the improvement of the resolution. The encoding excitation mode uses a group of continuous encoding sequences to replace a single pulse excitation broadband ultrasonic transducer, the excitation duration is longer than the pulse width of a single pulse, the average acoustic power is improved, and a decoding pulse which is close to the single pulse width but has a larger amplitude value can be obtained after pulse compression, so that the signal-to-noise ratio is improved. Meanwhile, for the ultrasonic detection equipment in the form of a sensor array, the coded excitation can also be used for carrying out information source identification on each ultrasonic transducer, so that various sound field parameters (Songheng, Liuming Yu, and the research on the binary coding-based pipeline defect ultrasonic detection method [ J ]. piezoelectricity and acoustooptic, 2018(6)) can be solved.
Most of ultrasonic sensor excitation modes in the current market excite detection ultrasonic waves with specific frequency and specific power through an analog circuit or a main control chip, and the ultrasonic sensor excitation mode has the defects of single function, small adjustable range, inflexible use and the like, and is inconvenient for multifunctional ultrasonic excitation in complex occasions.
