    • An ultrasonic surgical system utilizes a digital control system to generate ultrasonic drive current for transducers (36) that are located in a hand piece (30) and are attached to a surgical scalpel or blade (32) in the hand piece so as to vibrate the blade in response to the current. The digital control includes a digital signal processor (DSP) or microprocessor (60); a direct digital synthesis (DDS) device; a phase detection logic scheme, a control algorithm for seeking and maintaining resonance frequency; and design scheme that allows to regulate current, voltage, and power delivered to an ultrasonic thereby a device. Such system allows the power versus load output curve to be tailored to a specific hand piece, which improves efficiency and reduces heat. Further, the components of the digital system are much less sensitive to temperature variations, thereby allowing it to operate with narrow as needed frequency range around the desired resonance in order to avoid excitation of other resonances. Also, the digital system provides increased flexibility in locating the resonance frequency of the blade and running diagnostic tests. The start of a user initiated diagnostic test that requires movement of the blade is caused by operating two of the system switches, which guards against accidental operation of the blade which could be harmful if in contact with tissue and also generate false diagnostic results. In addition, the system has interlock with an Electrosurgical unit so that it is not effected by the electromagnetic interference generated by that unit.

    • A method for detecting transverse mode vibrations in an ultrasonic hand piece/blade is achieved by monitoring the power delivered to the hand piece/blade to determine whether it increases as expected when power levels applied to the hand piece/blade are changed. While the blade is being held in midair, the power delivered to the hand piece/blade and /or the impedance of the hand piece/blade is measured at a first power level. Using the value obtained at the first power level, the expected power at a second power level is calculated and used to set a pass/fail threshold level for an actual measured power. Alternatively, the threshold is set for the impedance. Next, the actual power delivered to the hand piece/blade and/or the impedance of the hand piece/blade is measured at a higher power setting. A determination is made whether the hand piece/blade exhibits transverse mode behavior based on whether the actual measured power exceeds the established pass/fail threshold level. If this is the case, operation of the generator is inhibited, a "Transverse Mode Vibrations Present in Hand Piece/Blade" error code is stored in the generator, and a "Bad Hand Piece" message is displayed on a liquid crystal display on the generator. In addition, a method for detecting transverse mode vibration in an ultrasonic hand piece/blade is achieved by monitoring power delivered to the hand piece/blade to determine if the an extraordinary power increase occurs as the drive frequency is shifted downward and/or upward from a primary intended resonance operating frequency.
