Abstract
An ultrasound circuit comprising a single-ended trans-impedance amplifier (TIA) is described, The TIA is coupled to an ultrasonic transducer to amplify an electrical signal generated by the ultrasonic transducer in response to receiving an ultrasound signal. The TEA is followed by further processing circuitry configured to filter, amplify, and digitize the signal produced by the TIA.
