Design and Performance Analysis of an Intrinsically Safe Ultrasonic Ranging Sensor

In flammable or explosive environments, an ultrasonic sensor for distance measurement poses an important engineering safety challenge, because the driving circuit uses an intermediate frequency transformer as an impedance transformation element, in which the produced heat or spark is available for i...
