TDC1011-Q1
SNAS670 –JULY 2015
TDC1011-Q1 Single Channel Ultrasonic Sensing Analog Front End (AFE) for Level
Sensing, Concentration Sensing Applications
1 Features
3 Description
The TDC1011 is a fully integrated analog front-end
(AFE) for ultrasonic sensing measurements of liquid
level, fluid identification/concentration, and proximity/
distance applications common in automotive,
industrial, medical, and consumer markets. When
paired with an MSP430/C2000 MCU, power, wireless,
and source code, TI provides the complete ultrasonic
sensing solution.

applications and end equipment. The TDC1011 can
be configured for multiple transmit pulses and
frequencies, gain, and signal thresholds for use with
a wide-range of transducer frequencies (31.25kHz to
4MHz) and Q-factors. Similarly, the programmability
of the receive path allows ultrasonic waves to be
detected over a wider range of distances/tank sizes
and through various mediums.

Measurements
Selecting different modes of operation, the TDC1011
can be optimized for low power consumption, making
it ideal for battery powered applications. The low
noise amplifiers and comparators provide extremely
low jitter, enabling picosecond resolution and
accuracy.
