ULTRASONIC TRANSMITTER

摘要

The transmitter comprises an array of electro-acoustic transducers (1), each of which is connected to an oscillator circuit (9) which has a start input (11). The start inputs (11) successively receive start signals from a start signal generator (13) which comprises a number of comparators (15), each of which comprises a first input (17) and a second input (19). The first inputs (17) are together connected to an output of a sawtooth generator (21), the second input (19) of each comparator (15) are connected to a direct voltage source (23). A direct voltage source (23) is provided for each start signal to be successively generated at least some of the direct voltage sources being controllable in common.
