Operates in 6 10 V single voltage Wide operation frequency range up to 250k Hz Temperature controlled oscillator traces resonant frequency drift of transducers Built-in 32 steps time controlled gain amplifier Built-in band pass filter of less external tuned components Bi-direction IO for both driving pulse & echo Adjustable system clock for various detection range Suitable for car reversing aids tape measurements & other sonar ranging applications The PW-0268 ultrasonic sonar ranging IC is designed specially for ultrasonic echo ranging application. This chip consists of an external tuneable RC oscillator with a special feature of automatic frequency tracing which compensates the resonant frequency shift of used transducer due to temperature change a stage of fixed gain pre-amplifier setting externally a 32 steps time controlled gain amplifier a less external components band pass filter a comparator converts analogue signal to TTL digital signal for external µP processing & a tuneable timer acts as time reference for chip clock.
