Abstract:
Electrical biasing of ultrasonic transducers of an ultrasound device is described. The ultrasonic transducers may be capacitive micromachined ultrasonic transducers (CMUTs). The ultrasonic transducers may be grouped together, with the different groups receiving different bias voltages. The bias voltages for the various groups of ultrasonic transducers may be selected to account for differences between the groups.

Claim (Index 13):
The method of  claim 8 , further comprising, in response to electrically biasing the first bias electrode, detecting an electrical response of the first group of ultrasonic transducers.
