摘要: Disclosed are a device and a method for generating ultrasonic scan image information, which can convert a rotatory motion of a motor into a linear reciprocating motion of an ultrasonic probe to allow the ultrasonic probe to scan a subject at high speed, and rapidly generate an accurate three-dimensional ultrasonic image by using a trigger signal. The device for generating ultrasonic scan image information disclosed herein converts a unidirectional rotatory motion of a driving motor into a linear reciprocating motion of a ultrasonic probe connected to the driving motor and two-dimensionally scans a subject by the linear motion of the probe and a vertical motion perpendicular to the linear motion so as to generate an image of the subject. The device may comprise: an ultrasonic irradiation/reception unit for irradiating a subject with ultrasonic waves through a probe and receiving a reflection signal of the irradiated ultrasonic waves through the probe; a signal conversion unit for receiving the reflection signal and converting the reflection signal into a digital image signal; a main control unit for receiving the digital image signal and generating ultrasonic image information about the subject; and a trigger control unit for generating a trigger signal on the basis of motion information of the probe, wherein the ultrasonic image information is generated in synchronization with the trigger signal.

摘要: An inductive position-measuring device includes a scanning element and a graduation element movable relative thereto along a direction. The scanning element has an excitation conductor, and first and second receiver tracks each having a receiver conductor, which extends along the direction according to first and second periodic patterns, respectively, over a length. A graduation track has graduation structures formed of ridges and gaps. The ridges have different widths, or the gaps have different depths or different widths, in the direction. The receiver conductors of the first and second receiver tracks are configured to generate first and second signals having first and second period lengths, respectively, wherein n times the first period length equals m times the second period length, with m and n being relatively prime, and n times the first period length and m times the second period length both being less than or equal to the length.

摘要: The present disclosure provides a magnetoresistive quadrant detector for use in a magnetic sensing device comprising a magnetic multi-turn sensor and an angle turn sensor, in particular, an angle sensor configured to provide 180° absolute angle measurements, such as an anisotropic magnetoresistive (AMR) angle sensor. The quadrant detector is formed of at least two magnetoresistive elements, preferably giant magnetoresistive (GMR) elements, which may be integrated to the multi-turn sensor die or provided on a separate die within the sensor package. The magnetoresistive elements are configured to provide a unique combination of resistance states for each quadrant of magnetic field direction. This quadrant information can then be used to remedy any ambiguities in the multi-turn measurement without needing 360° absolute angle information from the single turn angle sensor.
