Hi,
I have a need to demodulate the 40KHz ultrasound signal (that I generate on the other side using uC). In order to make things more clear, lemme spend some words explaining the circuit.
- block 1 is uC and other digital elco that among other things generate 40KHz chirps via 40KHz ultrasound transducer (UST40T)
- block 2 is receiving sound from 40KHz ultrasound transducer (UST40R) demodulating it and sending digital and analog signals to uC in block1
The idea is, b1 send chirp, chirp bounces back from obstacle, b2 catch the chirp and uC measure the time ... now, in theory this all works perfectly, in practice, I'm terrible at analog elco so this thread is actually about 2 things
1. Is there any pandam to IR Receiver in ultrasound world (one/two parts that will demodulate 40KHz signal and return TTL output)
2. if answer to 1 is NO, and I presume it is, can someone look at the attached schematic (drawn by me, calculated / developed by someone else) and comment on - do I need to recalculate some values (capacitors mainly), do I need to use another type of OP (LF353N is dual wide bandwidth opamp with jfet input, I have no idea how "new" or good it is, never used it). I understand how the schematic works that is not the problem, just not sure about quality of the opamp and calculation of the R/C values.
I was hopefully clear so .. thanks in advance
