Figure 6‐1: UF‐890AG System structure

The Ultrasound Module USMU890 consists in dedicated electronic modules used to produce and receive ul‐
trasound waves. Also, it is responsible for pre‐processing the ultrasound echo into B/M echo, PW or CW Dop‐
pler samples or CFM profiles.
The obtained results are then transmitted to the Host PC (PCU890) for real time display and storage.
The Host PC is built‐up as a standard FlexATX PC system with an i5 main processor and the built‐in standard
peripheral devices such as memory, Hard Disk, on‐board graphic, audio and LAN features.
The software application is running on the Host PC.
Overview 6‐1
This includes both Linux Operating System and the ultrasound application software.
The user interface (Man Machine Interface) which is logically part of the Host PC is a separate unit called MMI
and groups both keyboard and screen.
6.2 Main Modules
6.2.1 Ultrasound Module (USMU890)

The ultrasound module includes all electronics required for transmission, reception and pre‐processing of ul‐
trasound related information.
This module is composed of:
• MB870E main board which contains the digital signal processing (USDSP), the real time controller (BeFo‐
Co), 4 digital beam formers (SeReCo) and the analog receiver stages.
The CW analog beam‐former (which is done by the 32 channel analog receiver for CW Doppler) and the
Doppler demodulation and sampling are integrated into MB870E.
• Four TXM16 modules which provides 2 times 64 transmitters.
Only a set of 64 transmitters can be used simultaneously.
• One XCBQE module which is the transducer switch box and allows to select one out of four electronic ar‐
ray transducers or one Doppler pencil probe.
The communication and data transport to the PC module runs through a IEEE1394 (Firewire) link.
6.2.2 Host PC (PCU890)

The Host PC module is built around a standard FlexATX PC module.
The PC module has daughter boards on the PCI/PCIe interface and provides the functional blocks such as par‐
allel / serial port, audio, FireWire and all connections to the internal Hard Disc and the peripheral devices over
USB, LAN or Monitor.
The host PC is composed of:
• A standard Flex ATX form factor PC system called PC_ATX including system memory, internal graphics,
network and USB functions.
• A minimum 60 GB SSD in mSATA form factor.
This storage device is attached to the PC through SATA. It contains both operating system and ultrasound
application.
• A minimum 500 GB HDD in 2.5" form factor.
Two discs are used in a RAID configuration.
These discs are attached to the PC through SATA. They contain the patient data storage.
• A PCI to IEEE1394 (FireWire) interface that provides the link to the ultrasound engine USMU890.
• A serial interface between the PC and the FLDSP inside USMU890 and the parallel port (which is used as
general purpose I/O port).
• An Intel HD Audio interface which is used for the internal speakers and for the audio out signal.
A microphone input line is also available.
• A IOM4 module (which provides connectivity to external I/O ports for peripherals and in‐system connec‐
tivity to MMI, USMU890 and CARTPS).
The Host PC is the host of the ultrasound application, the attached MMI provides the commands and displays
the results.
The PC is also used for signal processing such as scan conversion, 4D rendering or Doppler spectrum calcula‐
tion.
6‐2 Main Modules

6.2.3 Man Machine Interface (MMI)

The MMI ‐ Man Machine Interface ‐ provides a direct control access to system through keyboard functions
and it also includes the system output display on the screen.
• USIFAE and USIFUE modules which are the system user interface.
These modules contain a specific ultrasound mode and an alphanumeric keyboard and a trackball.
• The display which consists of a 22" TFT Color LCD screen.
The screen is directly driven by the graphic controller inside the PC and uses a Display Port interface.

The power supply units are split into the following modules:
• CARTPS
This power supply module provides the required DC power for the PC and USMU890 from input AC Mains
line.
It also provides isolated AC for peripherals and the supply for the lift (24.0V DC).
The PC supply follows the standard ATX power supply specification (the supply for USMU890 is 13.0V DC).
• PSCM4/5/2E
The power supply module inside the USMU890 provides the DC voltages for the USE part, the low noise
supplies for analog circuits and the higher voltages for relay switching and motor drive inside the trans‐
ducers.
It also provides DC voltages for the transmitter and for high voltage multiplexer inside special probes.
MB870E includes all local linear regulations for FPGA and DSP supply as well as for the analog receiver elec‐
tronics.

APPENDIX B: Installation/Connection of peripheral devices
B.1 Preparation before connecting peripheral devices
WARNING
• If you wish to connect the equipment with other devices, contact the FUKUDA DENSHI
representative nearest to you
Dangerous situations such as electric shock may arise to the patient and/or operator.
• Be sure to read the section “CONNECTING OTHER DEVICES” of “BEFORE OPERATION”
before connecting a peripheral device to the equipment.
• Safety compliance of used peripherals
Peripherals must be marked with CE identification mark and comply with IEC 60601‐1 or
IEC 60950 Standards or be marked with UR mark (UL registered) for the North American
market.
• Never connect additional peripherals directly to wall outlets
Never connect additional peripherals directly to wall outlets if there is no isolator to pro‐
vide galvanic isolation between the peripheral and the system. Use the outlets available
on the equipment or an isolation transformer in compliance with medical safety stan‐
dards and IEC 60601‐1 specifications. Wrong connections may compromise the electri‐
cal safety of the system. Fukuda Denshi will supply an isolation transformer compliant
with medical safety standards upon request.
• Never connect peripheral devices that have not been specified as being compatible
with the equipment in this manual
• The Multiple Socket Outlet of the equipment must only be used for supplying power to
peripheral devices listed in this manual.
Never use for any other purpose.
• Connecting any electrical equipment that has not been listed in this manual to the Mul‐
tiple Socket Outlet can result in reduced of safety.
• Never add an additional multiple socket outlet or extension cord to the existing one.
• The maximum total permitted load at the Multiple Socket Outlet is 300VA.
• Never connect the network (RJ‐45) directly to the system
Never connect the network (RJ‐45) directly to the system. Use a network isolator com‐
pliant with medical safety standards and IEC 60601‐1 specifications. Wrong connections
may compromise the electrical safety of the system. Fukuda Denshi will supply a net‐
B
work isolator in compliance with medical safety standards upon request.
• Never touch encloses of peripheral devices connected to the equipment and the pa‐
tient simultaneously
CAUTION
• All equipment (printers, video recorders, external monitors and other peripherals) must
be connected to the system’s isolated three‐pin outputs.
However, when more than three peripherals need to be connected to the system or
when the total power requirements for peripherals exceed 400 VA, they must be pow‐
ered by an isolation transformer in compliance with medical safety standards or con‐
nected by means of appropriate isolation accessories.
• Do not connect B&W or color laser printers to the system AC output. The typical power
consumption of a laser printer is above 400VA and therefore it must be powered by an
isolation transformer or connected through the isolated LAN interface.

D‐2 Basic system tests

About short‐cuts
The UF‐890AG main software can be started with different options. Some command short‐cuts has been im‐
plemented to start the main software or some other tests easily from a terminal window:
• stopSefius use this short‐cut to stop any UF‐890AG main software process
• runSefius is equivalent to
$ sh run.sh -sim=0 -realprobes -sound
• runSefiusNA (No APACS) is equivalent to
$ sh run.sh -sim=0 -apacs=0 -realprobes -sound -automousecapture
• runSefiusNP (No Probes) is equivalent to
$ sh run.sh -sim=0 -apacs=0 -sound -automousecapture
• runSefiusNANS (NoApacs + NoSound) is equivalent to
$ sh run.sh -sim=0 -apacs=0 -realprobes -automousecapture
Note: Additional options can be added to a short‐cut command if necessary.
A full list of shortcuts can be displayed in a terminal by typing:

D.2.2 USMU890 Diagnostic Tool

Starting the tool
The system must be booted in windowing mode and a terminal must be opened by using the [PRIO] key con‐
text menu. How to enable the windowing mode is given in Chapter C.3.8 "Enable/Disable Windowing Mode
(WM)" on page C‐7.
The UF‐890AG application nor any other service or test tools shall run while using this tool.
 The tool can be started from a shell by typing the following commands:
$ startoverall
$ runUsmDiag
 The following interface will be displayed:
Basic system tests D‐3

The General menu

The user can start the overall control features of the USMU890 with the following functions:
 Power on USM / Power off USM

Set USMU890 power on/off. The relay which is controlling the power supply of the USMU890 is set to the
desired position. Theses commands are equivalent to the following manual commands:
$ startUSE
$ stopUSE
 Gscanbus
The gscanbus program is an utility used to display all the Firewire devices connected to the PCU. It is equiv‐
alent to the following manual command:
$ gscanbus
 Check DUU version
Run this program, to get the DUUE version. This is necessary, because the tool needs to know the kind of
DUUE to select the right firmware. It is equivalent to the following manual commands:
$ sh exec.sh FireBurn -dv
 Reset USM
 Makes a whole reset of the USMU890. This command works only if the USMU890 is powered on. It is
equivalent to the following manual commands:
$ sh exec.sh FireBurn -dr
INFO
• After a reprogramming of FPGA or FLDSP, it is necessary to reset the USMU890 to
get the new programming files active.

 DUU monitor
Start a monitor which is displaying firelink operations on an USMU890 (resets, errors, FPGAs versions.):
This command is equivalent to the following manual command:

$ sh exec.sh FireTrace
 By pressing ‘h’ a menu is displayed that indicates which operations can be done with this tool. For
diagnostics purposes it might be interesting to reload the FPGAs or to reset the whole USM.
 By pressing ‘g’. a summary screen of the DUUE and the USMU890 is displayed. This screen helps to
identify quickly link errors, FPGA status and firmware versions.
The Jtag menu
From this menu you can check the JTAG chain of UF‐890AG which is used to re‐program CPLDs inside the
USMU890.
 The Check chain menu
This utility allows the user to verify if the JTAG check is complete. The programming of the CPLDs is only
possible if this test has been passed. This is equivalent to the following manual command:
$ runJtagTest

 The Device list menu

This menu is similar to the previous test, but it is more complete. During this test the Jtag chain is checked
and all the devices found are listed to the output. This can be useful to make diagnostics if the chain seems
to work but the CPLDs cannot be programmed. The programming of the CPLDs is only possible if this test
has been passed successfully.
This is equivalent to the following manual command:

$ runJtagIdcode

The Programming menu

From here, you can program the USMU890 and boards serial numbers or any FPGA and CPLDs of the
USMU890.
 The USMU890 serial number menu
This menu allows the user to read/store the serial numbers from/to a File (on the PC)/EEPROM of the
PCBs.
The serial numbers are initially programmed into the EEPROM during the production. So the service tech‐
nician must change a serial number or board version when a board upgrade is done. The File storage is
intended to be a temporary storage. Only the numbers stored in the EEPROM are significant. If the
USMU890 is not powered on, the EEPROM buttons are disabled. The USMU890 shall therefore be pow‐
ered on before starting this tool to have access to the stored serial numbers.
The equivalent manual command for this feature is:
$ run SnStorage
 The Fldsp menu

This menu allows you to store a new DSP firmware for the MB870E.
Once started, a file selection box is displayed. The default file name is set, but a different file can be chosen
by clicking the <...> button. To program a new file click on the Program button, and then Yes when the
D
warning box is displayed and then wait until the programming operation is finished.

Verifications of the analog front end with the GAFA tool
The Graphical Front end Analyzer (GAFA) Tool allows to test the USMU890 front end. An internal test signal
generator allows to inject well defined test signals at different locations in the front end and to check the cor‐
rect function of the electronic.
The GAFA tool has three sections:
The receive electronics (RX), the transmit electronics (TX) and the CW receiver (CW). For the transmit tests a

transducer simulator ATES may be required to have a nominal load during emission. If no simulator is avail‐
able then the transmitter tests must be done without probe connected and the transmit tests without load
need to be selected.
A standard transducer may be used as load, but the load is not 50 Ohms and therefore the test results will be
outside the test grid.
• Start the GAFA tool:
Hardware debug‐>Tools‐>Gafa tool
• RX Tests: Select the RX_DBF tests group:
Graphical analog front end analyzer [Test Selection] ‐> Data source
‐> RX
• Select following test:
Graphical analog front end analyzer [Test Selection] ‐> Test select
‐> Rx VGA
Run this test without changing the test signal pre selection by typing <Run>.
It is important to do this test first because it shows if the test signal generator is ok and the A/D converter on
the MB870E runs correctly. If the test is successfully passed then the other tests can be done.
Check that a complete bar graph is displayed and all the bars are displayed with blue color and are inside the
pre‐defined limits (2 dashed lines). No red or empty bars should be visible. An example is given in Figure D‐1:
"Gafa window: a typical Rx test" on page D‐9.
Moving the mouse pointer over the bar graph, will update the measurement frame of the Gafa tool, allowing
user to determine which channel is working well or has some problems.
Figure D‐1: Gafa window: a typical Rx test
• The following tests allow to test the RX sections:

‐> Rx VGA: Whole receive chain of all 64 MB870E channels
‐> Rx DC offset: DC offset at ADC inputs
‐> Rx Pulse shape: Pulse response over the whole receive chain of all 64 MB870E channels
D
‐> Rx noise: Input noise of all 64 MB870E channels. It is possible to select input element
0 to 63 (A‐channels) or 64 to 127 (B channels)
• TX Tests: Select the TX tests group:
‐> TX
• The following tests allow to test the TX sections:
‐> Tx 128 channels: Checks the 128 transmitters with and without load. This test can also be
used if the switching between the three probe connectors is possible. For this a test
simulator or a real probe (LA or CA probe) must be used.

‐> Tx Pules 50 Ohms/Tx Signal (with or without load): Allows to check the transmit pulse shape of all
128 TX channels.
All other TX tests require the nominal load of the probe simulator ATES.
• CW Receiver Tests: Select the CW tests group:
‐> CW

D.5 How to replace an USMU890 internal module or cable
The Ultrasound Module USMU890 consists in dedicated electronic modules used to produce and receive ul‐
trasound waves. Also, it is responsible for pre‐processing the ultrasound echo into B/M echo, PW or CW Dop‐
pler samples or CFM profiles.
The obtained results are then transmitted to the Host PC (PCU890) for real time display and storage.
The ultrasound module includes all electronics required for transmission, reception and pre‐processing of ul‐
trasound related information.

• MB870E main board which contains the digital signal processing (USDSP), the real time controller (BeFo‐
Co), 4 digital beam formers (SeReCo) and the analog receiver stages.
The CW analog beam‐former (which is done by the 32 channel analog receiver for CW Doppler) and the
Doppler demodulation and sampling are integrated into MB870E.
• Four TXM16 modules which provides 2 times 64 transmitters.
Only a set of 64 transmitters can be used simultaneously.
• One XCBQE module which is the transducer switch box and allows to select one out of four electronic ar‐
ray transducers or one Doppler pencil probe.
Inside the USMU890, the different modules that can be replaced are:
 TXM16 (4 modules)
 PSCME (power supply module inside the USMU890)
 MB870E main board
 XCBQE (transducer switch box)

E.3 Inspection Related to Safety

We recommend you to conduct an inspection related to safety as a means to check safety of the equipment.
Safety test standards specify testing method, measuring instruments and so forth. However, it is extremely
hard to conduct all the checks specified in standards on the field of medical care. Therefore, think that mea‐
surement is only to determine a rough criterion, when checks are made for maintenance and inspection. Cas‐
es of simple measurement of leakage current and of protective earth resistance are described below.
CAUTION
• If it is found during safety inspection that tolerances are exceeded, never use the sub‐
ject equipment, otherwise the patient may be exposed to danger.
Check of leakage current
Leakage current meters (electronic voltmeter, digital voltmeter), impedance for measurement, power supply
switching box, etc. are available as measuring instruments.
 Measuring instruments:
Impedance for measurement is needed as a leakage current measuring instrument. The following figure is a
typical composition of impedance for measurement.
R1 : 10kΩ ±5%
R2 : 1kΩ ±1%
R1 C1 : 0.015µF ±5%
V : Measuring instruments (voltmeter)
R2 C1
V
Inpedance for measurement (indicated as = MD )
The leakage current can be obtained by measuring the voltage at both ends of this impedance for measure‐
ment.
A digital voltmeter is required to indicate the true effective value against composite waveform of frequency
band from DC to 1 MHz, and it is desirable that a voltmeter of the specified performance is used. But it is con‐
sidered that a digital voltmeter available on the market is appropriate because it is simply used for measure‐
ment to obtain a value that is a criterion for maintenance and inspection. However, it is necessary to check
the frequency band of the voltmeter used for measurement and to keep in mind that if leakage current of a
frequency that is outside of the said frequency band is present, it is not indicated by the voltmeter.
Methods for measurement of earth leakage current and of enclosure leakage current are briefly described
below.
Impedance for measurement is hereinafter expressed as MD .
Inspection Related to Safety E‐5

Checking the earth leakage current (current that flows through the protective earth line)
A method using a power supply switching box and a method using a 2‐3P conversion adapter are available for
checking the earth leakage current.

 Measurement method:
 Take measurement at point B of the earth line (such as the earth line of the adapter) of the power
cable and point A of the dedicated earth terminal for medical‐use 3‐pin connector.
 Measurement can be taken either in the normal state or in the single failed state.
 Take measurement in the normal state with the polarity of the power supply switched. In case 2, it
is also possible to take simple measurement simply using a 2‐3P conversion adapter by changing the
polarity of connection to the connector.
 Measurement in the single failed state can also be taken with one power supply fuse removed. Mea‐
surement is taken in four modes in this case because polarity of the 2‐3P conversion adapter is
changed and measurement is also taken with another power supply fuse. Or, it is also possible to
prepare a 2P table tap and to take measurement with one blade only of the 2‐3P conversion adapter
inserted into the connector.

 Take measurement between point A of the dedicated earth terminal for medical‐use 3‐pin outlet
and point B that is an arbitrary point of the unit.
 Measurement in the normal state can be simply taken by the following method: Connect the earth
line of the 2‐3P conversion adapter to the dedicated earth terminal for medical‐use 3‐pin outlet and
change the polarity of the plug pins of the 2‐3P conversion adapter. An extremely small value (near‐
ly zero) is measured in the normal state.
 Take measurement in the single failed state by disconnecting the earth terminal for medical‐use 3‐
pin outlet and the earth line of the power cable (earth line of 2‐3P conversion adapter) on the equip‐
ment side and by switching the polarity of the plug pins of the 2‐3P conversion adapter.
 Criteria for checks:
In the measurement of leakage current, determine the maximum value of all the measured values
as the measured value. The maximum allowable values of earth leakage current and of touch cur‐
rent are indicated below. When conducting inspection, compare the measured values with mea‐
sured values taken during inspections in the past and assure that major differences are not ob‐
served.
Maximum allowable values of leakage current

Normal State Single failed state
Earth leakage current 5 mA or less 10 mA or less
Touch current 0.1 mA or less 0.5 mA or less
Measuring the protective earth resistance

Measurement of protective earth resistance is taken with AC current of 25A supplied to a test transformer
from a power supply, the no‐load voltage of which does not exceed 6V (specified in standards). However, it
is not easy to prepare such a measuring instrument, and therefore, a simple method is described below.

1. Simple measurement of protective earth resistance
 Method (1) is to measure the protective earth resistance of the equipment using AC current of
around 2A. Connect the power cable of the equipment to E1 and connect a metallic port (such as
potential equalization terminal) to E0. Make the cable connected to E0 short to avoid increase of
the contact resistance. Current of about 2A flows to the equipment. Measure the voltage (V1) be‐
tween points A and C and the voltage (V2) between points B and C using a digital voltmeter or the
like.
Since the current that flows is the same, the protective earth resistance to be obtained is as follows
from the relation between voltage ratio and resistance ratio:
R/3 = V2/V1 <=> R (protective earth resistance) = 3x V2/V1 (Ohm)

(It is sufficient if the measuring current is around 1A.)
The resistance value between an accessible conductive part and the protective earth resistance is
specified as 0.1 Ohm or less as indicated below. When measurement is taken at the ground plug of
the power cable in the state where the power cable is connected, the resistance should be 0.2 Ohm
or less including that of the protective earth line in the power cable.
Measured values of protective earth resistance
Between protective earth terminal and potential equalization termi‐ 0.1 Ohm or less
nal
Between protective earth terminal of power cable and potential 0.2 Ohm or less
equalization terminal
 Simple method of resistance measurement:

Since AC current is supplied for measurement of protective earth resistance of item (1) above, a
power supply transformer capable of supplying a current of a few amperes is required, and it is nec‐
essary to prepare a measuring jig.
If it is impossible to prepare such a transformer for measurement, take simple measurement of re‐
sistance as stated below. (Consider the result of measurement as a simple criterion in this case.)
Measure the resistance between an accessible conductive part (such as potential equalization ter‐
minal) and protective earth terminal, and assure that the resistance value is 0.1 Ohm or less.
Furthermore, when measurement is taken at the ground plug of the power cable in the state where

the power cable is connected, the resistance should be 0.2 Ohm or less including that of the protec‐
tive earth line in the power cable.
With the test lead (probe), etc. used for measurement, it is essential to adjust the resistance value
from the test lead.

Since this simple method for measurement is largely different from the method for measurement
specified in standards, consider the result of measurement as a simple criterion in this case.
