Abstract

An ultrasound activation signal is received from ultrasound driving logic. A phase delay module of an ultrasound module generates phase-differentiated drive signals. The phase-differentiated drive signals are driven onto an array of ultrasound transducers to generate a steered ultrasound beam.
