- CMUTs are capacitive micromachined ultrasonic transducers and represent a breakthrough in ultrasound transducer technology.
- CMUT transducers are MEMS based structures that can be used to transmit and receive acoustic signals in the ultrasonic range.
- CMUTs enable new applications for ultrasound technology. Compared to conventional technology,
- CMUT ultrasound transducers convey numerous advantages such as large bandwidth, easy fabrication of large arrays, and integration with driver circuitry.
For example, you can attach CMUTs to a catheter and enter the body for examination. The use of harmful X-rays is therefore no longer necessary. A big win – and just one of the many advantages that CMUTs offer over conventional technology. Additionally, CMUTs come with increased bandwidth, easy fabrication of large arrays, and the ability to integrate them with driver circuitry: CMUT-on-CMOS. In addition to these advantages, CMUTs offer a great deal of design freedom, allowing you to produce a custom ultrasound device that exactly fits your specific needs.
Cephasonics CMUT Development Platform
Cephasonics, in conjunction with the Philips and Xiver, provides you a complete CMUT-ready ultrasound development platform based on our ultrasound system utilizing leading-edge CMUT devices. This makes it easier for you to evaluate CMUT as well as develop and commercialize new CMUT-based solutions. With Cephasonics' open development tools and real-time access to data, combined with CMUT development capabilities, you will be able to quickly create, adapt, and commercialize innovative new ultrasound applications.
This enables you to evaluate and build next generation commercial CMUT ultrasound applications more quickly. Without an integrated system approach, application developers face significant challenges finding and connecting all the right components before they can even begin working on new application concepts. This provides you an out-of-the-box development-ready system to reduce technical barriers and time frame for developers to begin creating new CMUT applications.
