The signal sampling circuit, the detection device and the imaging system provided by the embodiment of the application are described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
As shown in fig. 2, an embodiment of the present application provides a signal sampling circuit 100, which may include a signal input terminal for receiving a signal from the outside and a reference amplitude supply terminal for providing a reference amplitude or presetting the reference amplitude therethrough, and a plurality of comparators (e.g., n first comparators 110, second comparators 120, third comparators 130, n being positive integers) and a time-to-digital converter (TDC) 140 connected to each other, and may further include a delay unit 150, an amplitude holding unit 160, and a processing unit 170. Wherein an input terminal of the delay unit 150 is connected to a signal input terminal, an output terminal thereof is connected to first input terminals of the second comparator 120 and the third comparator 130 of the plurality of comparators, an input terminal of the amplitude holding unit 160 is connected to a signal input terminal, an output terminal thereof is connected to a second input terminal of the third comparator 130, and the processing unit 170 is connected to output terminals of the time-to-digital converter 140 and the amplitude holding unit 160.
In an embodiment, two input terminals (i.e., a non-inverting input terminal and an inverting input terminal) of the first comparator 110 may be respectively connected to a signal input terminal (e.g., a V (t) input terminal) of the signal sampling circuit and a reference amplitude supply terminal (e.g., a V 1~Vn supply terminal) to receive the electrical signal to be measured and the reference amplitude, and an output terminal thereof may be connected to the TDC 140 to transmit the level signal thereto.
Each of the first comparators 110 may be a voltage comparator, and may be configured to compare the amplitude of the electric signal to be measured received through the signal input terminal with the reference amplitude received from the reference amplitude supply terminal, and output a corresponding level signal to the TDC 140 according to the comparison result. For example, when the amplitude of the electrical signal to be measured is greater than or equal to the reference amplitude, it may output a high level signal, and when the amplitude of the electrical signal to be measured is less than the reference amplitude, it may output a low level signal. Accordingly, the time-to-digital converter 140 may record a first time when the amplitude of the electrical signal under test reaches each reference amplitude according to the level signal received from each first comparator 110, thereby obtaining a first sampling point. Each first sampling point may be characterized by a reference amplitude and a corresponding first time, e.g., (T 1,V1)、(T2,V2)、(T3,V2) or (T 4,V1), and the reference amplitude may be recorded as the first amplitude.
It should be noted that, the reference amplitudes received by the n first comparators 110 are different from each other, and specific values of the reference amplitudes may be preset according to the characteristics of the electrical signal to be measured.
The second comparator 120 may also be a voltage comparator, which may be connected to one of the plurality of reference amplitude supply terminals, and may be used to compare the voltage of the delay signal received from the delay unit 150 with the reference amplitude received from the reference amplitude supply terminal connected thereto, and output a corresponding level signal to the TDC 160 according to the comparison result. For example, when the voltage of the delay signal is greater than or equal to the reference amplitude, it may output a high level signal, and when the voltage of the delay signal is less than the reference amplitude, it may output a low level signal. Accordingly, the time-to-digital converter 160 may record a first delay time when the voltage of the delay signal reaches the reference amplitude according to the received level signal.
The third comparator 130 may also be a voltage comparator that may be used to compare the amplitude of the delay signal received from the delay unit 150 with the second amplitude of the output signal of the amplitude holding unit 160 and output a corresponding level signal to the TDC 140 according to the comparison result. For example, when the amplitude of the delay signal is greater than or equal to the second amplitude of the output signal of the amplitude holding unit 160, it may output a high level signal, and when the amplitude of the delay signal is less than the second amplitude of the output signal of the amplitude holding unit 160, it may output a low level signal. Accordingly, the time-to-digital converter 160 may record a second delay time when the amplitude of the delay signal reaches the second amplitude of the output signal of the amplitude holding unit 160 according to the received level signal.
The TDC 140 may be configured to output a corresponding digital signal representing time according to the level signals received from the first, second and third comparators 110, 120 and 130. In a specific embodiment, the TDCs 140 may be flexibly set according to actual requirements, for example, two TDCs 160 may be set for each first comparator 110 to record two first times corresponding to each reference amplitude respectively, one TDC 140 may be set for each first comparator 110, second comparator 120 and third comparator 130 respectively, or only one TDC 140 may be set for all comparators, so as to reduce the volume and cost of the signal sampling circuit. For a detailed description of the TDC, reference may be made to related descriptions in the related art, and a detailed description thereof will be omitted.
The delay unit 150 may be configured to delay the received electrical signal to be measured for a period of time and transmit the delayed signal (i.e., the delayed signal) to the second comparator 120 and the third comparator 130, and the specific delay time of the electrical signal to be measured may be preset according to actual requirements or controlled in real time according to the received instruction. The delay unit 150 may be a delay line, and its length may be determined according to a delay time, or may be other delay elements or circuit structures.
The amplitude holding unit 160 may be designed or selected in advance according to actual demands or experience, and may be used to perform an amplitude holding process on the received electrical signal to be measured, so that a signal whose output amplitude is a certain value (i.e., the second amplitude) can be held for a certain period of time after the amplitude of the electrical signal to be measured reaches the certain value. For example, the amplitude holding unit 160 may hold a signal whose output amplitude is an amplitude threshold after the amplitude of the electric signal to be measured reaches the amplitude threshold set inside thereof, or may hold a signal whose output amplitude is a peak after the voltage of the electric signal to be measured reaches a peak (i.e., the maximum amplitude or the minimum amplitude of the electric signal to be measured), as shown in fig. 3. The second amplitude is different from the reference amplitude.
In one embodiment, as shown in fig. 4, the amplitude holding unit 160 may be a voltage holding circuit including elements such as a capacitor, a diode, and an inductor. In the voltage holding circuit, one end of the capacitor may be coupled to the one end of the inductor in parallel, the other end of the capacitor and one end of the diode may be connected to the second input of the second comparator 120 and the processing unit 170 in parallel, and the other end of the diode may be connected to the other end of the inductor in series. The diode can be conducted before the amplitude of the electric signal to be detected received through the signal input end reaches a peak value, and can be cut off after the amplitude of the electric signal to be detected reaches the peak value, so that the voltage of the capacitor can be stabilized for a period of time. In the measurement process, when the voltage across the capacitor suddenly changes, for example, from V i to V j (where i and j are different positive integers), the voltage of the electrical signal to be measured can be considered to reach a peak value, and the peak value is recorded.
The amplitude holding unit 160 may be any other element or circuit structure for holding a voltage, and is not limited thereto.
The processing unit 170 may be configured to process the time data output by the TDC 140 to determine a second time when the amplitude of the electrical signal under test reaches a second amplitude to obtain a second sampling point, for example, (T j,Vj). Specifically, the processing unit 170 may calculate a difference between the first delay time and the second delay time, and may calculate a second time corresponding to the second amplitude using the difference and the first time corresponding to the reference amplitude received by the second comparator from the reference amplitude supply terminal. The calculation process can be formulated as follows:
Tj=Ti+△T=Ti+(T'j-T'i)
In the above formula, T j represents a second time, preferably a time corresponding to the maximum amplitude or the minimum amplitude of the electrical signal to be measured, T i represents a first time, which may be any one of two first times corresponding to the reference amplitude received by the second comparator, T 'j represents a second delay time, and T' i may be a first delay time corresponding to the first time T i.
The processing unit 170 may be any device capable of data processing, for example, may be an FPGA chip or may be a processor integrated on the FPGA chip.
In another embodiment, as shown in FIG. 5, the signal sampling circuit 100 described above may further include a clock source 180 that may be coupled to the TDCs 140 to provide a clock signal (preferably, a synchronous clock signal) to each TDC 140 such that all of the TDCs 140 may operate in accordance with the received clock signal.
In another embodiment, the processing unit 170 may include an analog-to-digital converter (not shown) that may be connected to the amplitude maintaining unit 160 to convert the analog signal output from the amplitude maintaining unit 160 into a digital signal.
In another embodiment, as shown in fig. 6, the signal sampling circuit 100 may further include a memory 190, which may be connected to the processing unit 170 and may be used to store data output by the processing unit 170.
In the above embodiment, the first amplitude (i.e., the reference amplitude) and the second amplitude may each be a voltage or a current, or may be other physical quantities for representing the amplitude.
As can be seen from the above description, the signal sampling circuit provided by the embodiment of the present application collects the first sampling point of the electrical signal to be measured by using the first comparator and the TDC, and collects the second sampling point of the electrical signal to be measured by using the second comparator, the third comparator, the delay unit, the amplitude holding circuit, the processing unit, and the like, which increases the number of collected sampling points, thereby improving the sampling precision and the accuracy of the subsequent signal restoration. Moreover, by utilizing the technical scheme of the application, the amplitude point (namely, the wave crest or the wave trough) of the electric signal can be acquired in a self-adaptive manner, which is more beneficial to improving the accuracy of subsequent signal restoration, thereby improving the energy resolution.
The embodiment of the present application also provides a detection apparatus 1000, as shown in fig. 7, the detection apparatus 1000 may include the signal sampling circuit 100 described in the above embodiment and the detector 200 connected to the signal sampling circuit 100. The detector 200 may specifically be connected to a signal input terminal in the signal sampling circuit 100 to send an electrical signal to be measured to the signal sampling circuit 100. The detector 200 may be any detector capable of detecting a radioactive ray and generating a corresponding electrical signal, preferably a PET detector, in which case it may comprise a scintillation crystal 210 and a photoelectric converter 220 coupled to each other, as shown in fig. 8. The photoelectric converter 220 may include a silicon photomultiplier, a photomultiplier tube, a charge coupled device, an avalanche photodiode, or the like. The details of the scintillation crystal and the photoelectric converter can be referred to the related description in the prior art, and will not be described in detail herein.
By the detection device provided by the embodiment of the application, the digital sampling of the electric signal detected by the PET detector can be realized, and the amplitude point of the electric signal can be acquired in a self-adaptive manner, so that the accuracy of subsequent signal recovery can be improved.
The embodiment of the present application further provides an imaging system, as shown in fig. 9, where the imaging system may include the above-mentioned detecting device 1000 and an image reconstruction device 2000 connected to the detecting device 1000, where the image reconstruction device 2000 may be configured to perform image reconstruction processing on sampling points acquired by a signal sampling circuit in the detecting device 1000 to restore waveforms of electrical signals output by a detector in the detecting device 1000. The image reconstruction device 2000 may be any device capable of performing image reconstruction processing on the sampling points.
By utilizing the imaging system provided by the embodiment of the application, the accuracy of signal recovery can be improved.
The systems, devices, units, etc. described in the above embodiments may be implemented by a semiconductor chip, a computer chip, and/or an entity, or by a product having a certain function. For convenience of description, the above devices are described as being functionally divided into various units, respectively. Of course, the functions of the units may be implemented in the same chip or chips when implementing the application.
In this specification, each embodiment is described in a progressive manner, and identical and similar parts of each embodiment are all referred to each other, and each embodiment mainly describes differences from other embodiments. The embodiments described above are described in order to facilitate the understanding and use of the present application by those of ordinary skill in the art.
