Abstract:
An electromagnetic transceiver apparatus for a NMR apparatus has an intermediate frequency generator for preparing an intermediate wave, a transmission frequency converter for preparing, on the basis of an intermediate frequency of the intermediate wave, an electromagnetic wave to be radiated from a transmitter coil, a reception frequency converter for processing a signal received by the NMR probe, an analog-digital converter for converting an output of the reception frequency converter into a digital signal, an IQ detector for performing detection on the basis of an output of the analog-digital converter, a phase locked loop and a switch inserted between the analog-digital converter and the reception frequency converter to select either an input from the intermediate frequency generator or an input from the reception frequency converter.
Abstract:
An NMR apparatus has a circuit adapted to improve the degree freedom of design and generate an excitation radiofrequency wave pulse suited for a sample to be measured. The radiofrequency wave transmission circuit includes a local oscillator, an IQ modulator having two mixers and two arbitrary waveform generators connected to the IQ modulator. Fourier inverse transform is applied to data inputted to the arbitrary waveform generators.
Abstract:
A DDS (direct digital synthesizer) remarkably increased in the number of frequencies which can be output while maintaining the phase coherency, and an NMR instrument using such a DDS are provided. A DDS including phase accumulators and a phase-to-amplitude modulator is provided with a plurality of phase accumulators operating with fixed phase implements which are equal to powers of 2, a controller for outputting each bit of a frequency tuning word as control data, a plurality of switches for outputting an output of an associated one of the phase accumulators when an associated one of the control data supplied from the controller is 1 and outputting 0 when the associated one of the control data is 0, and an adder for adding up outputs of the switches.
