The Interface Electronics for an Ultrasonic Matrix Transducer for 3d Transesophageal Echocardiography

In this paper, the design considerations of a mixed-signal integrated circuit for a 2D matrix ultrasonic transducer will be presented. The IC and the matrix transducer will be put into the tip of a transesophageal (TEE) probe for 3D echocardiography. The challenges associated with the interface electronics include: addressing the huge amount of elements, do the beam steering in the transmission...

molecular electronics

electron components have been steadily decreasing in size, while molecular materials have in recent years been found to exhibit many of the properties used in electronics. such developments are giving rise to a new field in which molecular materials are used for electronic applications. molecular electronics offers .

Microfluidic electronics.

Microfluidics, a field that has been well-established for several decades, has seen extensive applications in the areas of biology, chemistry, and medicine. However, it might be very hard to imagine how such soft microfluidic devices would be used in other areas, such as electronics, in which stiff, solid metals, insulators, and semiconductors have previously dominated. Very recently, things ha...
