  2. Piezoelectric speaker - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Piezoelectric_speaker

    A piezoelectric speaker (also known as a piezo bender due to its mode of operation, and sometimes colloquially called a "piezo", buzzer, crystal loudspeaker or beep speaker) is a loudspeaker that uses the piezoelectric effect for generating sound. The initial mechanical motion is created by applying a voltage to a piezoelectric material, and ...

  3. Buzzer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Buzzer

    Piezoelectric buzzers, or piezo buzzers, as they are sometimes called, were invented by Japanese manufacturers and fitted into a wide array of products during the 1970s to 1980s. This advancement mainly came about because of cooperative efforts by Japanese manufacturing companies.

  4. Piezoelectric sensor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Piezoelectric_sensor

    Metal disks with piezo material, used in buzzers or as contact microphones. Piezoelectric technology can measure various physical quantities, most commonly pressure and acceleration. For pressure sensors, a thin membrane and a massive base is used, ensuring that an applied pressure specifically loads the elements in one direction.

  5. Piezotronics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Piezotronics

    Schematic diagram showing the three-way coupling among piezoelectricity, photoexcitation and semiconductor. Due to the non-central symmetry in materials such as the wurtzite structured ZnO, GaN and InN, a piezopotential is created in the crystal by applying a stress.

  8. Circuit diagram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Circuit_diagram

    A circuit diagram (or: wiring diagram, electrical diagram, elementary diagram, electronic schematic) is a graphical representation of an electrical circuit. A pictorial circuit diagram uses simple images of components, while a schematic diagram shows the components and interconnections of the circuit using standardized symbolic representations.

  9. Inchworm motor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inchworm_motor

    Figure 1. Diagram of piezo inchworm motor in action. Figure 2. Six-step actuation process of the piezo inchworm motor. In its simplest form, the inchworm motor uses three piezo-actuators (2 and 3, see Figure 1.) mounted inside a tube (1) and electrified in sequence to grip a shaft (4) which is then moved in a linear direction.
