[Page 5] 3. Safety Precautions Please observe the following precautions to ensure the safety of service engineers as well as operators when using this system. DANGER: Do not use flammable gases such as anesthetics, or flammable liquids such as ethanol, near this product, because there is danger of explosion. WARNING: 1. Information concerning the terminal to which the potential equalization conductor is to be connected ( ): To use another medical device in combination with this system, an equipotential wire for connecting to an equipotential bus must be supplied. For more information, contact your TOSHIBA representative. * Be sure to connect the potential-equalization lead wire before inserting the equipment power plug into the receptacle. Also, be sure to remove the equipment power plug from the receptacle before disconnecting the wire to avoid electrical shock. 2. Information concerning the functional earth terminal ( ): Use of the functional earth terminal as protective earth is not allowed in Europe. The system should be connected according to local requirements. 3. Do not connect this system to outlets with the same circuit breakers and fuses that control current to devices such as life-support systems. If this system malfunctions and generates an overcurrent, or when there is an instantaneous current at power ON, the circuit breakers and fuses of the building’s supply circuit may be tripped. 4. Do not connect to the system transducers other than those specified by TOSHIBA, to prevent accidents such as fire. 5. Do not subject the transducers to knocks. Use of defective transducers may cause an electric shock. CAUTION: 1. Malfunctions due to radio waves (1) Use of radio-wave-emitting devices in the proximity of this kind of medical electronic system may interfere with its operation. Do not bring or use devices which generate radio waves, such as cellular telephones, transceivers, and radio controlled toys, in the room where the system is installed. (2) If a user brings a device which generates radio waves near the system, they must be instructed to immediately turn OFF the device. This is necessary to ensure the proper operation of the system.
[Page 6] CAUTION: 2. Be sure to install the system on a level floor and lock the casters. If this is not done, the system may move, injuring the service personnel. 3. Confirm that movable sections such as the LCD monitor and operating panel are locked before moving the system. Otherwise, the movable sections may move unexpectedly and cause injury. 4. Move the system forward or backward only. If the system is moved to the left or right, it may fall, causing injury. In addition, be sure to fix the moving sections such as the operating panel before moving the system. If such sections move, they may catch the hands or fingers of the persons moving the system, possibly causing injury. 5. To prevent electric shock, do not connect the peripheral units (video printer, VCR, etc.) to an external outlet. Peripheral units should be connected to the service outlet of the system or the optional isolation transformer. For the connection procedures, contact your TOSHIBA representative. 6. The service outlet of the main unit is intended solely for recommended peripheral units. Do not connect devices other than recommended peripheral units to the service outlet. Connecting devices other than those recommended may cause the consumption current to exceed the power capacity of the main unit, possibly resulting in malfunction. 7. Do not place any objects on top of the monitor. They may fall, causing injury. 8. Do not allow fluids such as water to contact the system or peripheral devices. Electric shock may result. 9. Do not handle the system with wet or moist hands. Electric shock may result. 10. Be sure to turn OFF the power breaker and disconnect the mains plug from the outlet before removing the covers of the main unit and performing internal wiring. 11. When discarding any part of this system, follow all applicable local regulations. 12. Wear protective gloves to ensure safety and prevent infection when performing unit replacement, board replacement, internal wiring, or cleaning. 13. Wait at least 30 seconds after turning OFF the power breaker and disconnecting the mains plug from the outlet before replacing the battery. Otherwise, an electric shock may result.

[Page 75] 4. FUNCTIONS OF EACH PWB 4.1 Front-End Unit The front-end unit consists of the Transducer Interface board (TI), the two Transmit boards (TX), the Receive board (RX), the Receive Control board (RC), the Continuous Beamformer board (CB), and the Mechanical 4D Control board (MC). (2) Composition (a) Transducer Interface board (TI) The TI board includes the three electronic scan transducer connectors and a pencil transducer connector. This board enables switching between the transducers. (b) Transmit boards (TX) The two TX boards perform simultaneous transmission for a maximum of 192 channels. In addition, these boards are provided with a transmission delay control function. (c) Receive board (RX) This board performs simultaneous reception for a maximum of 128 channels. It also switches 64 channels to perform reception for 192 elements. In addition, this board is provided with a reception gain control function. (d) Receive Control board (RC) This board performs signal phasing/addition in simultaneous quadrature reception (up to 128 channels). In addition, the Real Time Control circuit (RTC), which controls the front-end unit, is provided. (e) Continuous Beamformer board (CB) This board consists of the signal phasing/addition control circuit, the quadrature detection circuit, and the signal processing circuits for 64 channels for the SCW and dedicated transmission/reception circuits for the ADC and the Pencil CW. (f) Mechanical 4D Control board (MC) This board drives the motor in the Mecha 4D transducer. It makes the piezoelectric element array inside the transducer sweep and transfers the sweep angle information necessary for 3D image creation to the system in real time. (3) Flow of signals in the Front-End unit (a) Transmission system Transmission data from the RTC in the RC board is transferred to the TXPG in the TX board. The transmission delay and transmission waveform data are set. The TXPG has a transmission reference clock (40 MHz, four-phase) and outputs the trigger signals HOUT/LOUT to the PULSER based on the clock. The PULSER outputs a bipolar transmission signal based on the trigger signal. The transmission signal is output to the transducer connector port that is selected on the transducer port selector of the TI board.
[Page 76] (b) Reception system The received echo signals are input through the transducer connector to the TI board and then into the preamplifier in the RX board. The signals are amplified to the predetermined signal level in the preamplifier and input to the RXBF-ASIC in the RC board. The input signals are AD-converted in the RXBF-ASIC and sent for reception beam forming. Beam forming is performed simultaneously in a maximum of four directions and the beams are then output to the BE board. (c) SCW transmission/reception system The SCW transmission system is the same as that described in (a) above. The 64-ch reception signal output from the RX board is input to the CB board that is connected to the RC board in parallel. In the CB board, quadrature detection is performed in the demodulator after reception analog beam forming. Baseband signal processing is then performed and the signals are AD-converted. The I/Q signals that have undergone AD conversion are converted to serial data and are output to the BE board. (d) Pencil CW transmission/reception system The CB board includes the pencil CW transmission/reception circuit. The transmission output signals in the CB board are passed through the pencil transducer connector connected to the TI board using the cable and are then output to the pencil transducer transmission elements. The echo signals received in the pencil transducer are also passed through the TI and are amplified in the pencil CW receiver circuit in the CB board. The signals are then passed through the demodulator or later blocks in the same manner as for the SCW system and are output to the BE board through switch operation.

[Page 77] (5) Testing and calibration of the boards It is necessary to test and calibrate the boards after board replacement. The procedures are outlined below. For details, refer to the service manual (maintenance volume: 2D730-513EN). (a) Testing the boards The functions and performance of the TI, TX, RX, CB, RC, and MC boards should be tested. (b) ADC offset calibration The DC offset of the ADC input of the echo signals should be calibrated. If this calibration is not performed, fixed noise may appear on the image. (c) SCW TX power calibration The errors in the SCW transmission system between the systems should be calibrated. If this calibration is not performed, the transmission voltage during SCW may not be set correctly and excessive acoustic power or insufficient sensitivity may result.

[Page 79] 4.1.1 TI The TI board (Transducer Interface board) includes the three array transducer connectors and enables switching of the transducers to be connected to the pulser/preamplifier. (2) Description of functions and operation (a) Array transducer switching This board contains the three 360-pin ZIF connectors for the array transducers and switches between the 192-ch echo line and the required control line using a relay. The transmission/reception signals are transferred to the pulser/preamplifier mounted on the TX/RX board through the BackPlane board. (b) Pencil transducer transmission/reception signal connection The connector box for the pencil transducer is installed in the cabinet and is thus connected to the TI board via a cable. The transmission/reception signals coming from the pencil transducer are transferred to the pencil pulser/pencil preamplifier mounted on the CB board through the TI and BackPlane boards. (c) Support of the M-TEE transducer • Thermistor line Transfers signals coming from the temperature detection thermistor embedded in the M-TEE transducer to the ADC mounted on the RC board. (Up to one thermistor is supported.) • Angle detection line Transfers signals coming from the angle detection potentiometer embedded in the M-TEE transducer to the ADC mounted on the RC board. (d) Support of the Mecha 4D transducer The connector box with the Mecha 4D port is installed in the cabinet and is therefore connected to the TI board by a cable. The angle signal and motor drive signal are input at this port. (e) Support of 1.5 D transducer including a HVSW • This board receives the control data for the HVSW embedded in the transducer (walking bus) from the RC board and transfers it to the transducer. • This board supplies ± 100 V for the HVSW embedded in the transducer. (f) Power supply for circuit inside the transducer This board supplies + 5 V for the circuit inside the transducer. An over-current detection circuit is provided.
[Page 80] (g) Error detection The TI board includes detection circuits for the following errors. a. HV fault error This error occurs if the voltage for the HVSW embedded in the transducer is not correct. b. HV detection fault error This error occurs under the following conditions. If this error occurs, the crowbar circuit operates and stops supplying ± 100 V. • The ± 100-V power for the HVSW embedded in the transducer is applied to a connector where no transducer is connected. • The ± 100-V power for the HVSW embedded in the transducer is applied to a connector where a transducer that does not require a high voltage is connected. c. Relay fault error This error occurs if a relay for switching the transducer has values that are different from those of the relay control register. d. Over-current fault error This error occurs if an over-current occurs in the power (+5 V) supplied to the transducer. (h) Transmission disable signal generation The TI board transfers the transmission disable signal (TXDIS) to the TX boards under the following conditions. • An HV fault error is detected (a in (g)) • An HV detection fault error is detected (b in (g)) • A relay fault error is detected (c in (g)) • An over-current fault error is detected (d in (g)) • The HVSW in the 1.5 D transducer is in transition • The transducer selection relay is in transition • The transducer ID of the selected transducer is changed • An empty transducer connector is selected (3) Differences relative to Xario (a) A high-voltage circuit has been added to support the 1.5D transducer. (b) An Address Decoder (FPGA) is included. It is controlled by the TC-BUS.

[Page 82] 4.1.2 TX The TX board generates the transmission signals for all the transducers other than the pencil transducer. Each TX board has 96 channels and together they transmit 192 channels. The transmission signals are sent to the transducer via the TI board. (2) Description of functions and operation (a) Transmit pulser This circuit drives the piezoelectric elements inside the transducer electrically. The number of transmission waves and the pulse duration are controlled by the TXPG. The transmission pulse is generated in the low-voltage power supply and then increased in the transformer (bipolar transmission). In addition, this pulser has the two power supplies (VTX0 and VTX1) for transmission. Each power supply is applied to each of the two primary coils in the transformer. This allows transmission voltage switching for each rate (dual pulser). (b) Pecl clocks The following two pecl clocks are provided. <1> 4-phase and 40-MHz pecl clock (RCFECK[0:3]) <2> 1.25-MHz synchronization signal, which becomes low every 32 clocks of RCFECK0: RCFECKE+/- The source of the pecl clock is the RC board. The pecl clocks are used in the TX board in the following ways. <1> 4-phase and 40 MHz (RCFECK[0:3]), RCFECKE+/- Æ Used for TXPG transmission pulse <2> RCFECK0 is converted to TTL and then used as follows via the clock driver. • EPLD and JTAG IF EPLD clocks • Clock detector (c) TC (Transmit Control) bus interface The TX board exchanges the transmission control signal, board information, and firmware information with the RC board via the TC bus. The transmission control signal is received in the address decoder EPLD in the TX board and then written to or read from the TXPG. The board information and firmware information are written to or read from the ID EEPROM. I/O control of the ID EEPROM is performed by the address decoder EPLD. The TC bus has two 16-bit bidirectional data buses (RCTC0D and RCTC1D) and an 18-bit address bus (RCTCA).
[Page 83] (d) Fault detection and protection circuit The TX board generates two types of interrupts: transmission interrupts and clock detection interrupts. <1> Transmission interrupt A transmission interrupt is generated when TXEN0 and TXEN1 are both "H" simultaneously. This occurs only if there is a hardware fault or if the address decoder test bit is set. The address decoder EPLD always monitors the TXEN0 and TXEN1 lines and sets the interrupt status bit when it senses that both signals have become "H" simultaneously. When this bit is set, the TX board stops transmission by making TXEN0 and TXEN1 "L" and transfers the transmission inhibit signal (/TXDIS) and the interrupt signal (/RCTCIRQ) to the system simultaneously to indicate that a system malfunction has occurred. This disables transmission to both TX boards, not just the TX board where the error occurred. <2> Clock detection interrupt A clock detection interrupt is generated when the pecl clock in the front-end unit stops before the TXPG completes transmission. This leaves the TXPG output signals in an incorrect state and as a result, the transmission circuit may be damaged. When this interrupt occurs, transmission is discontinued and an error message is displayed on the screen..
[Page 84] TX board block diagram
[Page 85] 4.1.3 RX board (1) The RX board amplifies the echo signals from the TI board and transmits them to the RC board. (2) Description of the functions and operation (a) Limiting circuit The limiting circuit consists of diodes and prevents the transmission pulse from being applied directly to the preamplifier during transmission. (b) Reception resonance Reception resonance is achieved by placing inductance coils in parallel in echo signal lines. A coil is connected between the echo signal line and GND. In addition, there are three other inductance coils that can be selected. The resonance can be changed by using these four inductance coils in various combinations. (c) RXSW The RXSW in the RX board selects and connects the 192-channel echo signal lines from the TI board to the 128-channel preamplifier. (d) Low-noise amplifier (LNA) and variable gain amplifier (VCA) (functions in the preamplifier) These amplifiers amplify the echo signals from the TI board. The gain in the low-noise amplifier is fixed to +19 dB. The variable gain amplifier together with the low-noise amplifier sets the gain from +7.5 dB to 55.5 dB by changing the control voltage (VTGC) from 0 V to 1 V. (e) LNA/VCA select SW This switch selects the output signal from the RX board between the LNA and VCA. The LNA output is selected in SCW mode and the VCA output is selected in other modes. (f) RX FPGA The RX FPGA decodes the addresses from the TC Bus and performs the control necessary for the RX board. (3) Comparison with Xario Item Xario AplioXG TI control function Implemented on the RX Implemented on the TI board board. itself.

[Page 87] 4.1.4 RC board The RC (Receive Control) board controls the front-end section, AD-converts the reception signals, and performs signal phasing/addition. (2) Descriptions of functions and operations The RC board includes the following functions. (a) Front-end section scan control: RTC (Real Time Controller) block The transmission/reception in the front-end section is controlled according to control information from the MA. The RTC block consists of an FPGA (Field Programmable Gate Array; programmable IC) and SRAM. The sequencer in the FPGA transmits data to each block of the front-end section and controls scanning according to the control information stored in the register in the FPGA and the SRAM. (b) AD conversion and phasing/addition of reception signal: RXBF (Receive Beam Former) block The reception signal for each channel is AD-converted with a sampling frequency of 40 MHz and a quantification precision of 10 bits. The required reception delay is applied to each converted signal and then the signals are added. This block consists of 8 ASICs (RXBF ASICs). (c) Analog control signal generation: Analog Control block The analog control signals required in the front-end section (listed below) are generated. They are obtained by DA-converting the digital codes output from the RTC. • VTGC (time gain compensation) This signal controls the preamplifier gain depending on the depth of reception. This signal is input to the preamplifier IC in the RX board. • TXV (transmit voltage control) This signal controls the transmission pulse voltage. The signal is input to the TX board via the power supply unit. • VMD (voltage for midpoint bias) This signal controls the bias point of the reception echo signal line. (d) Anti-aliasing filter: Analog Echo Receive block This is a low-pass filter that prevents the aliasing that occurs when the analog echo signal is converted into a digital signal. (e) System clock generation: Clock Generation block The clock to be used in the system is generated. A 40-MHz clock is generated by dividing the 160-MHz crystal-oscillator output.
[Page 88] (f) Self-diagnosis: Diagnostic Circuit block The line voltage and reference voltage in the front-end unit are measured for self- diagnosis of the system. This block also includes the function for detecting the temperature of the TEE transducer head and angle of the piezoelectric element surface. The signals to be measured are selected by the multiplexer and are input to the AD converter. The converted data is transmitted to the MA via the RTC. A separate circuit that stops transmission forcibly when a certain temperature is reached is provided for the transmission voltage and TEE transducer head temperature detection signals. (g) Working bus The working bus signals that control the aperture of the 1.5D transducer are transmitted to the TI board. (3) LED An LED (DS1) is set at the free edge on the RC board. If this LED lights, the FPGA of the RTC is configured (programmed). The FPGA is automatically configured when the power supply is input. Therefore, if the LED does not light even when the power supply is input, the RTC circuit is not configured and therefore the system does not operate. This problem may occur as a result of contact failure of the FPGA terminal, device failure, or failure of the ROM that stores the program. (4) Error detection The RC board detects the errors described below. (a) Excessive transmission voltage detection The RC board monitors the transmission voltage output from the power supply unit to the TX board by the TXV as described above. If this control signal exceeds a predefined limit value, the RC board generates an error and stops transmission. The limit value is set in the register in the RTC by the MA.
[Page 89] (b) TEE transducer head high-temperature detection The RC board is provided with a function to detect the temperature of the TEE transducer head. If the temperature exceeds 43°C, the RC board outputs an error and stops transmission. In addition, since the RC board mainly controls the front-end unit, it temporarily receives an error output from the TX, RX, CB, or MC board. The RC board then outputs an interrupt request to the MA.

[Page 93] 4.1.5.3 Composition and operation of each block (1) Transformer and buffer The output of the preamplifier on the RX board is input to the CB board during SCW Doppler mode. Since the output is input as a differential signal, it is converted into a single-end signal in a 1:1 transformer, buffered in the emitter follower, and then output to a circuit in the next stage. (2) MPX It is necessary to add a delay time associated with the sound propagation time between the piezoelectric element and focus to the input signal for each channel. This is achieved by the delay line, which determines the delay amount according to the selected input tap. The MPX (multiplexer) selects the tap for input of the reception signal (the delay amount to be added). The MPX uses eight cross-point switch ICs with 8:16 input/output to assign the 64-channel signals to the 16 relay taps. (3) Delay Line and Adder This block is consists of the delay lines described above. The MPX output signal is input to the grounded-base transistor and the output current is transmitted to the delay lines. When the required delay is added to each tap input signal of the delay line, the currents are added and converted back to the voltage by the resistor in the output. (4) Adder The processing described above is performed in two systems, each of which consists of 32 channels. The results are summed in this block and final beam forming for a maximum of 64 channels is completed. The signals are set to current mode by the grounded-base transistor and then the currents are added. (5) SCW/Pencil MUX The processing operations (1) to (4) above are performed during SCW Doppler mode. In pencil CW Doppler mode, a separate processing system is used to receive and amplify the signals. The subsequent processing is the same as that for SCW Doppler mode. The signals to be transmitted to the next stage are selected in this block, which consists of analog switches. (6) Selectable BPF The signals in the band near the carrier frequency are transmitted to the next stage using the BPF (Band-Pass Filter). To accommodate the differences in carrier frequency depending on the transducers, BPFs with the following center frequencies are provided. The control signal switches the filter to that optimal for the selected transducer. 2.02 MHz 2.92 MHz 4.32 MHz
[Page 94] (7) Mixer The signals are converted into baseband I/Q signals using the DBM (Double Balanced Mixer). The mixing signal (LO input) is output from the dedicated IC described later. (8) BPF The low-pass characteristics eliminate the sum components of the mixer output, while the high-pass characteristics eliminate the Doppler components other than the blood flow contained in the reception signal. The latter is a clutter filter, which eliminates unnecessary components derived from the motion of the heart or other organs. This block consists of 4th-order active filters. (9) Baseband Gain Control The signal is increased to an adequate level before AD conversion in order to suppress NF deterioration due to quantum noise. This block employs a noninverting amplifier composition using operational amplifiers to allow the following gains to be set by switching the resistors. 0 dB 2 dB 4 dB 6 dB 8 dB 10 dB 12 dB 14 dB 16 dB (10) LPF (Anti-aliasing filter) This block is an anti-aliasing filter used before AD conversion. The sampling frequency in the AD converter is 312.5 kHz and the cutoff should be set to a frequency lower than the half of the sampling frequency. This block consists of 4th-order active filters and the cutoff frequency is set to approximately 150 kHz. (11) ADC & Data Combiner The analog signal processed above is converted into a digital signal in this block and then transmitted to the digital signal processing circuit in the next stage. This block uses a high-precision AD converter featuring 16-bit resolution and serial output mode to accommodate itself to the specifications for serial output to the next stage. In addition, this block outputs I/Q by a single-system signal (I component first and then the Q component) and combines ADC outputs using a data combiner (actually, the employed AD converter supports this function and therefore it combines the output signal lines and controls them properly).
[Page 95] (12) Pencil Transmitter & Receiver A separate processing system is provided for pencil CW Doppler. • For SCW Doppler, the preamplifier on the RX board is the first stage amplifier. For pencil CW Doppler, the preamplifier is implemented on the CB board. • Beamforming is not required and therefore the signals are not passed through the delay line etc. • The transmission circuit for SCW Doppler is provided on the TX board, while that for pencil Doppler is provided on the CB board. The transmission circuit receives the transmission voltage from the power supply unit and the transmission clock from the Reference Signal Generator (which is described below), and then generates bipolar transmission pulses by FET switching and by using a transformer. The reception circuit is a preamplifier whose output is sent to the quadrature detection circuit used for SCW Doppler. The reception circuit is a low-noise operating amplifier (amplification of approximately 20 dB). (13) Reference Signal Generator (TXPF ASIC) This block generates the mixing signal (LO signal to the mixer) for quadrature detection and the transmission clock to the pencil transmission circuit using the specially developed IC (TXPG ASIC). The TXPG ASIC is controlled through the Control Bus Interface to generate clocks of arbitrary frequencies with a precision of 160 MHz (6.25 ns) based on a 40-MHz 4-phase clock. (14) Control Bus Interface The CB board is controlled via the TC (Transmit Control) bus, which decodes the commands and performs the requested control. This circuit is consists of a single large-capacity PLD (Programmable Logic Device). (15) ID PROM This block stores the serial number, board revision, firmware revision, and other board information. It also stores the correction data used for correcting the differences in gain and phase between I/Q signals. These correction data are transmitted to the correction circuit in order to suppress the so-called mirror component on images.
[Page 96] 4.1.6 MC board The MC board drives the motor in the Mecha 4D transducer and makes the piezoelectric element array inside the transducer sweep. It then transfers the sweep angle information that is necessary for 3D image creation to the system in real time. (2) Description of functions and operation (a) Drive circuit for the motor in the Mecha 4D transducer The Mecha 4D transducer contains a motor that makes the piezoelectric elements sweep. This drive circuit transmits the drive signal for the motor. The control signal for the drive circuit is supplied by the USMC FPGA. (b) PECL Clocks The following two types of PECL clock are provided. <1> PECL Clock with 2 phases × 40 MHz: /RCBECK ± <2> Sync signal that becomes low every 32 clock cycles of /RCBECK+: /RCBECE ± The clock source is the RC board. These PECL clocks are used as follows in the MC board. <1> The /RCBECK ± and RCBECE ± signals are converted into TTL and then distributed to the PLD and TCIF by the clock driver, for synchronization with the system. <2> The /RCBECK ± signal is converted into TTL and distributed to the USMC by the clock driver to lock the PLL. (c) Transmit Control Bus (TC Bus) Interface The MC board communicates with the RC board through the TC bus to read/write the motor control signal, board information, and firmware information. The TC bus is connected to the TCIF (TC bus interface) FPGA. It consists of the bidirectional data bus: RCTC0D, address bus: RCTCA, Enable: /RCTCWR and /TCRCEN, and Acknowledge: /TCRCACK. The board information and firmware information are read from and written to the ID EEPROM (IDPROM). (d) The MC board communicates with the RC board through the TC bus to exchange the transmission control signal, board information, and firmware information. The TC bus consists of two 16-bit bidirectional data buses (RCTC0D and RCTC1D) and an 18-bit address bus (RCTCA).
[Page 97] (e) Fault detection and protection circuit When a fault occurs in the MC board, this circuit sets the /TCRCIRQ signal to low to inform the CPU of the fault via the RC board. The MC board outputs an interrupt in the following cases. <1> When a clock detect fault has occurred The clock supply to the USMC is intentionally stopped when the Mecha 4D transducer is not being used in order to avoid noise effect on other transducers. If the clock supply is stopped even though the Mecha 4D transducer is being used and clock supply to the USMC is expected, a fault results. <2> When the motor’s condition has become abnormal A fault results if the motor of the Mecha 4D transducer does not operate normally within the specified time. The USMC detects the fault and notifies it to the TCIF. <3> When a parameter setting error has occurred A fault results if the operation-designating parameter for the motor of the Mecha 4D transducer is abnormal. The USMC detects the fault and notifies it to the TCIF. When any of the above faults has occurred, the TCIF sets the interrupt status register bit predetermined to correspond to the fault to "1" asynchronously. The interrupt status register is located on the TCIF board. At the same time, the TCIF sets the /TCRCIRQ signal to low. The CPU then starts interrupt handling. The TCIF no longer outputs an interrupt when the interrupt mask register inside the TCIF is set to "1" as the CPU has started interrupt handling. In case of fault <1>, when the fault status is removed and the predetermined bit of the interrupt clear register in the TCIF is set to "1", the interrupt status is returned to "0" and the /TCRCIRQ signal is set to high. In case of fault <2> or <3>, when the predetermined bit of the interrupt clear register in the USMC is set to "1", the interrupt status is returned to "0" and the /TCRCIRQ signal is set to high.

[Page 115] 4.2.3 VP (Video Processor) The VP (Video Processor) board processes the NTSC/PAL video signals to support external OEM devices. (2) Functions The functions implemented by the VP are outlined below: • Video processor image formatter (FPGA) • Bidirectional scaling engine for NTSC/PAL • NTSC/PAL video decoding • NTSC/PAL video encoding • Simultaneous S-video, composite, and RGB analog output for NTSC/PAL • 64 bit, PCI bus interface • JTAG boundary scan interface (3) Explanation of the block diagram The top-level functional block diagram of the VP board is shown at the end of this subsection. The board includes one PCI master/target device and a VPIF (video processor image formatter) decoder FPGA. The PCI master/target interface in the device supports 64-bit address/data transactions at a 33-MHz bus speed. The PCI bus also allows the VPDM ASIC and the decoder FPGA to communicate with each other. The 16-bit data bus from the VPDM ASIC in the BE board to the VPIF encoder FPGA carries 16-bit YCbCr (4:2:2) non-interlaced video data with a resolution of 800 × 600 pixels. The VPDM sends video data that contains the video information displayed on the system monitor to the VPIF, where the data is converted to the NTSC/PAL image size and format and is then routed to the IO board. The NTSC/PAL video encoder receives image data in the 4:2:2 YCbCr format from the VPIF encoder FPGA and converts it to analog signals for an external monitor or VCR. The output analog signals are Y and C, color composite, and component RGB. The NTSC/PAL video decoder converts analog Y/C signals from an external video device to image data in the 4:2:2 YCbCr format. This image data includes the horizontal and vertical synchronization signals, the field ID, and the blanking information. The VCR video data decoded in VCR playback mode undergoes size conversion followed by conversion to non-interlaced video data in the VPIF decoder FPGA, and is then sent to the VPDM via the PCI bus.
[Page 116] (4) NTSC/PAL encoder interface The "encoder" interface block refers to the external digital video encoder section used to generate NTSC/PAL analog video signals. The 16-bit YCbCr data is converted into the CCIR-601 4:2:2 8-bit digital video format, which includes synchronization codes.

[Page 147] 8. PHYSIO MODULE This module detects physiological signals (ECG, respiration, PCG, and pulse) using the ECG cable and sensors and transfers the data to the diagnostic ultrasound system (hereinafter referred to as "system"). Line voltage ECG (electrocardiogram) 1CH (IM RESP (respiration) 1CH) DC IN (external input/ECG) 1CH (line voltage: ± 2.5 V) PCG (phonocardiogram) 1CH Pulse (pulse) 1CH AUX (external input) 1CH (line voltage: ± 2.5 V) (2) Functions The following functions are provided. (a) Amplification of the electronic potential induced by the R and F electrodes of the ECG cable attached on the body surface and transfer of the data to the system in order to display the ECG on the monitor. Detection of the QRS waveforms and transfer of the signals to the system. Measurement of the electrical resistance in the chest with an alternating current (between electrodes R and F) and transfer of the data to the system in order to monitor the respiration cycle. (b) Transfer of data from the PCG sensor attached to the chest to the system in order to display PCG waveforms on the monitor. (c) Transfer of data from the waveform sensor attached to the carotid artery and apex of the heart to the system in order to display pulse waveforms on the monitor. (d) Transfer of input signals (physiological signals) from two external medical devices to the system. The input signal from the one of the external medical devices can be output to the system as a trigger signal for imaging. (3) Operations This module consists of the amplifier section, power supply section, and digital section. The module is connected to the system via a cable and a 15-pin D-sub connector. The module receives a 12-V power supply and waveform request command from the system and performs waveform (such as ECG and PCG) output to the system. The amplifier which amplifies the ECG, respiration, PCG, pulse, and external device signals is set inside this module. After importing the A/D values, the module calculates the sensitivity and position using the single-chip CPU inside the A/D converter and stores them in the RAM as digital values. QRS detection is performed by the hardware. The waveform data is output via a serial interface at a transmission rate of 312.5 Kbaud when a waveform request command is received from the system. QRS detection signals are output by setting QRS flags in the detection signals and waveform data (two series). Also, sensor connector insertion/removal information is transferred to the system. For the ECG connector, lead ON/OFF information, which indicates whether or not the three electrodes are attached to the patient properly, is output.

[Page 156] 11. SETTING THE PRESET MENU 11.1 Outline of Each Preset (1) Basic preset architecture This system contains the following presets. • System Preset • Exam Type (This is actually a system preset. However, it is important and is therefore included here also.) • Application Preset • Imaging Preset • 3D Preset (2) System preset System Preset includes a group of parameters to be set in the system. Some of the parameters included in System Preset are available only to the service engineer, but the parameters are generally available to the user. The user can change the parameters using the system preset editor. (3) Exam Type (a system preset) Exam Type is used to set the transducer, imaging preset, and application preset automatically. In this system, the Exam Type can be completely matched with the imaging preset name. When the Exam Type is selected on the Patient Information screen and the examination is started, the selected Exam Type is registered in the DICOM format. Using the Editor screen, the item (transducer, imaging preset, or application preset) to be activated when Exam Type is selected on the Patient Information screen can be set. (4) Application preset The application preset includes parameters such as Measurement, Body Mark, Annotation, and Report that are available to the user. The user can change the settings using the application preset editor. The application preset values at the time of shipment can be returned to those at the time of shipment at any time even if the values have been changed. Note, however, that if the values are returned to those at the time of shipment, the settings specified by the user are deleted. In order to prevent this information from being deleted, save it to external storage media.
[Page 157] (5) Imaging preset The imaging preset includes a group of parameters related to imaging. They are available to the user. However, there is no preset editor. User setting can be performed using the Save function after selecting the imaging parameter. Up to seven imaging presets can be registered for each Exam Type by the user and can be deleted and overwritten. Note, however, that the factory setting that is contained in each Exam Type cannot be deleted or overwritten. Imaging parameters can be preset independently for Fund., THI, CHI, Color, Power, etc. The 2D-IP is equivalent to B-IP in the previous system. There are five IP Types (A to E) and eight IP Indexes (1 to 8). Parameters such as the dynamic range value in 2D-IP are stored separately (in a separate file) from the imaging preset parameters. (6) 3D preset The 3D Preset consists of the following three presets. Although these presets have been set at the factory, they can be changed by the user. These presets can be set for each Exam Type and each Volume Type. • Initial display preset • Operation preset • Reconstruction preset
