The smart probe is a new trend for the next generation of portable ultrasound equipment. The handheld size of a smart probe provides convenience for doctors, but consumes more power. Due to the working process of the transmitter, the controller of the power supply does not always need to switch fast. By slowing down the switching frequency during the no load period, the quiescent loss decreases significantly. This decrease extends the battery life and improves the thermal performance. The adjustable output helps meet a variety of requirements of the customer and eases the methods for powering the transmitter. These features help simplify the system design.
