The AFE5812 is a highly-integrated analog front-end
(AFE) solution specifically designed for ultrasound
systems in which high performance and small size
are required. The AFE5812 integrates a complete
time-gain-control (TGC) imaging path and a CWD
path. It also enables users to select one of various
power/noise combinations to optimize system
performance. Therefore, the AFE5812 is a suitable
ultrasound AFE solution not only for high-end
systems, but also for portable ones.
