A) Analysis Apps (applications)
The Analysis Apps of ProCheck SC5 UTAS involve five measurements; please refer to the attached file "2018-09-29_Broadsound ProCheck SC5 UTAS_Analysis Apps.pdf" for details, and the summary of which is listed as following:
1.Capacitance measurement
Total capacitance CT of each channel/element including capacitance of transducer element, capacitance of coaxial cable, and capacitance of HVSW (high voltage switch) ICs if existed is measured at low frequency < 30 kHz.
2.Axial characteristic loop sensitivity SLC measurement
2.1 Curve of characteristic loop sensitivity $lc along axial distance L is measured; the curve Indicates élévation focus and divergence in far-field zone of acoustic beam which are determined by acoustic membrane / acoustic lens.
