Ultrasound Beamforming ASIC targets merchant market.

Samplify Systems, Inc.    Santa Clara, CA 95051
Dec 05, 2011 Configurable 32-channel digital receive beamformer, SAM2032, interfaces to 12-bit ADCs with 32 serialized LVDS inputs. Data-path consists of delay memory, cubic interpolation, and apodization weighting prior to summation of 32 channels. With tunable center frequency and programmable decimation filter bandwidth, optimal tracking filter throughout entire scan depth can be implemented. ASIC supports sampling rates up to 50 MHz and parallel beam processing using QuadBeam(TM) technology.

Nov 10, 2011 As complete 64-channel transmit/receive beamforming front-end using AutoFocus(TM) technology and analog-front-end modules, SMK9130-A2 has multiplexed probe interface on one end and USB 2.0/x4 PCIe1.1 interface to back-end CPU on other. SUAPI 2.0 ultrasound API, included, abstracts underlying hardware in system. C++ middleware software layer provides UI for configuration and setup for ultrasound scan types and arbitrary probe definitions. Users can control all hardware parameters/functions.

Ultrasound Development Kit provides complete front-end solution.

Nov 05, 2010 Model SMK9130 Ultrasound Beamforming Development Kit includes two 32-channel ultrasound AFE receiver modules for full continuous-wave Doppler capability. AutoFocus(TM) beamforming technology and QuadBeam(TM) phased array processing combine received signals from each channel to provide 4 scan-line outputs for each transmission. System supports transmission of b&w and color modes as well as post processing with interface to PC host via USB 2.0 or 4xPCIe 1.1.

Ultrasound Reference Design fosters SAM1600 ADC integration.

Samplify Systems, Inc.    Santa Clara, CA 95051
Sep 28, 2009 Based on SAM1600 ADCs and Prism(TM) compression technology, reference design for ultrasound market includes entire ultrasound receive chain and consumes 100 mW per channel. LVDS outputs allow for simultaneous capture of data from all 32 channels by standard FPGA development boards using provided GUI. Solution aids design-in process for SAM1600 ADCs, which reduce data bottlenecks in ultrasound machines and facilitate accelerated development of both black/white and color equipment.

Signal Compression Software optimizes data transmission.

Samplify Systems, Inc.    Santa Clara, CA 95051
Aug 10, 2009 Developed to help solve transmission issues faced by high-data bandwidth signal processing applications, Prism v3.0 offers real-time signal compression algorithm for implementation on FPGA platforms and intelligent data converters. With flow-through pipelined design, latency through compression and decompression is minimized to less than 1 micron and is independent of packet size. SignalTrak Mode maintains signal quality for bursty signals with wide dynamic ranges.

Signal Compression Software facilitates RF data recording.

Apr 16, 2008 Built around Prism(TM) signal compression technology, Samplify for Windows Release 2.6 losslessly compresses captured signal data in real-time, at up to GS/sec rate. Samplify for Windows Embedded Edition provides same compression/decompression engine, but supports end user application development though API. Release 2.6 includes support for arbitrary quantization of user input files, panning and zooming, and large files in excess of 100 MB.
