Memory | 8 banks |
Controls | Trigger-in, Trigger-out |
Data interface | RS 232, serial |

US-Key - Ultrasound System in USB format
The US-Key is a new generation and one of the world's smallest single channel ultrasound devices. Its format makes it a constant companion especially for mobile and field applications, and for presenting R&D results and prototypes during road shows.
The device provides flexible, powerful pulsing and receiver specs completely powered by an USB-2.0 connection. It is a perfect tool for NDT, academic, and medical applications.
Specifications:
Bandwidth (-6dB) | 540kHz … 18MHz |
Tx Voltage | -10V to -230V, 50Ω pulse |
Rx PreAmp | Ultra-low noise preamplifier ZIn 100Ω / 0.47 nV/√Hz |
Gain | 0 to 80 dB programmable |
Resolution | 12bit @ 80 MSPS |
OS &Drivers | XP/Vista/7 Labview, Matlab, VB, C, C++ |
Power Supply | 5V via USB |
Size | 70mm x 36mm x 20 mm |

US-Box - Ultrasound System for Industrial Application
The US-Box is the larger version of the US-Key. It is a single channel ultrasound system specifically designed for the needs of commercial NDT applications in harsh industrial environments, but can be used for scientific and medical research as well. Due to its bigger size, several modifications, like transmit voltage level or low frequency cut-off, are possible upon customer request.
Its flexible firmware can be adapted to the specific needs of your application. Customers can either use the delivered NDT software or create a tailored GUI using one of the provided software interfaces.
Specifications:
Bandwidth (-6dB) | 540kHz … 18MHz |
Tx Voltage | -10V to -230V, 50Ω, ft 100Hz to 20kHz |
Rx PreAmp | ZIn 100Ω / 1 nV/√Hz |
Gain | 0 to 80 dB programmable |
Resolution | 12bit @ 80 MSPS |
OS &Drivers | XP/Vista/7 Labview, Matlab, VB, C, C++ |
Power Supply | 5V via USB |
Size | 130mm x 100mm x 30 mm |

US-Mux - US-Key with a multiplexer 1 to 16
Combine the excellent properties of the US-Key electronics with a fast switching multiplexer and you get our US-Mux. It is an attractive solution if you need to monitor up to 16 different spots using ultrasound with only one device. Several different software interfaces are included, which enable the user to define his own acquisition and measurement GUI.
