In recent years, so called “digital ultrasonic test instruments” have been commercially available. These conventional instruments employ electrical impulse excitation of ultrasonic probes. In this configuration, waveforms of ultrasonic pulses into a test object are determined only by the characteristics of probes. This means that variation of probe characteristics causes variation of evaluated results and reproducibility of evaluation is poor. Furthermore, some of the conventional instruments do not provide enough information required for quantitative nondestructive evaluation (QNDE) about a test object, since ultrasonic echo signals are A/D converted after an envelope detector in a receiver and only information of echo height and position is obtained.
