hi i am working with ultrasonic sensors. i want to develop transmitte and receiveing through single sensor.
 

Hi,
You need atTX-RX switch between US-Capsel & your electronics; in simplest way 2 Transistors or one relay...

i have both circuits and i got tx sensor and rx sensor ,instead of that i want to use one for both.
 

Hi,
Sorry, but you are writen:
" i want to develop transmitte and receiveing through single sensor."
What is than yet the situation pls?

i had developed the circuit for both Tx and Rx. and i am getting the signal back for 1.2mts,
now i need to develope a circuit that can use only one sensor for TX and RX, nothing but a switch to swicth between TX mode and RX mode,and another thing is to improve the range of the sensor.
 

you can make a circuit with a mcu. mcu drives the sensors(transmitter) for 10-20 miliseconds and waits the reflected signal(receiver) for 80-90 ms.
 

If the transmit driver is high impedance in inactive state and the receive amplifier doesn't load the transducer, you don't need a switch. This is the usual technique e.g. for echo sounders. A voltage limiter at amplifier input may be useful, possibly a blanking circuit to speed up the amplifier recovery after end of transmission.

Hi,
Yea, thes is exactly the goal of my mentioned "input shorter"- switch, & in my opinion the most simpler way too...:)
