Abstract
This paper gives a systematic analysis of the effects of including an integrated (built-in) preamplifier into an ultrasonic piezoelectric probe (hydrophone). The design parameters considered include the end-of-cable sensitivity, gain, dynamic range, power supply requirements, construction intricacy and cost. inclusion of a preamplifier is given, and it is shown that the additional complexity introduced by the preamplifier into the measurement chain may not be warranted in all applications. Guidelines for selection of the preamplifier are also presented.
