Ultrasonic Ranging Sensor HYSRF04
The SRF04 sonar range finder is a single-transducer ranging module with a 2-pin serial interface. With a range from 3cm to 3m (or 1.2" to 9.8ft), it’s ideal for situations that require accurate ranging information. This ultrasonic rangefinder uses a short blanking interval (100 microseconds) to cut down on noise from the initial ping. It’s also designed to use low amounts of power.
There are a couple of requirements for the input trigger and output pulse generated by the ranger. The input line should be held low (logic 0) and then brought high for a minimum of 10 microseconds. The pulse is generated on the falling edge of the input trigger. The ranger's receive circuitry is held in a short blanking interval of 100 microseconds to avoid noise from the initial ping and then it is enabled to listen for the echo. The echo line is low until the receive circuitry is enabled. Once the receive circuitry is enabled, the falling edge of the echo line signals either an echo detection or the timeout (if no object echo is detected).

Benefits of Ultrasonic Testing Methods
- Portability
- Consistent
- Detects flaws on the surface and below
- Just a little access is required
- Instant outcomes
Ultrasonic testing techniques have drawbacks
- Training is more thorough than alternative approaches.
- more costly than alternative approaches
- Use is challenging with thin materials
- Part geometry can be problematic.
- To link a transducer, a somewhat flat surface is required.
- For equipment setup, it is necessary to know the part's velocity and have a reference to calibrate against.
