Abstract: La présente invention concerne un procédé de commande d'un transducteur magnétostrictif à ultrasons du type utilisé dans un détartreur dentaire magnétostrictif à ultrasons qui comprend la génération d'un signal d'entraînement pour un circuit résonant utilisant un amplificateur synchrone de classe D en pont complet. Le signal électrique délivré en sortie par le circuit résonant excite une bobine d'excitation qui génère un champ électromagnétique provoquant la vibration du transducteur magnétostrictif à ultrasons. La mesure des sorties de courant et de tension du circuit résonant et l'échantillonnage en quadrature des sorties de courant et de tension mesurées à la même fréquence d'échantillonnage que celle utilisée pour la génération du signal électrique par le circuit résonant rend superflue la présence d'un fil de rétroaction. Un signal modulé en largeur d'impulsion est généré à partir du courant et de la tension détectés échantillonnés en quadrature qui représente une approximation de train d'impulsions d'une onde sinusoïdale du signal d'entraînement pour, à son tour, être appliqué à l'amplificateur de classe D synchrone en pont complet afin de générer le signal d'entraînement pour le circuit résonant. Des modifications des largeurs d'impulsion du train d'impulsions modifient l'amplitude du signal d'entraînement.
