Description

technical field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of MEMS sensor electronic measurement, and in particular relates to a frequency tracking circuit of a CMUTs (Capacitive Micromachined Ultrasonic Transducers, capacitive micromachined ultrasonic transducer) resonant biochemical sensor. Background technique

[0002] In recent years, CMUTs have been applied in the field of resonant biochemical substance detection, which has the characteristics of high quality factor. After coating with functional materials, the detection sensitivity of CMUTs resonant biochemical sensors can reach ppt level. The cell size of CMUTs based on MEMS technology is only tens of μm, and large-scale arrays can be realized. Designing a frequency tracking circuit for real-time output is the key to the real-time monitoring application of CMUTs resonant biochemical sensors.

[0003] Foreign research institutions have carried out some research on CMUTs frequency tracking circuit, but there is...
