Mar 14, 2021 at 14:53 comment added D.A.S. All piezo electric crystals, MEMs and ceramic resonators have a stored energy in the motional capacitance with the series equivalent inductance of the domain walls. So like a spring mass motion, it must be stopped abruptly then allowed to float for echoes or external waves into a high impedance amplifier.

Mar 14, 2021 at 8:36 comment added Landon So you short-circuit the ultrasonic transducer to discharge it because it charged up like a capacitor during the transmitting stage?
Mar 14, 2021 at 8:35 comment added Landon Ringing as in transmission line ringing? Is this because although everything is impedance matched in the circuit, there is an acoustic impedance mismatch between the transducer element and the water?
