  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.

    3 - passive layer 4 - mechanical contact area 5 - track. A bimorph is a cantilever used for actuation or sensing which consists of two active layers. It can also have a passive layer between the two active layers. In contrast, a piezoelectric unimorph has only one active (i.e. piezoelectric) layer and one passive (i.e. non-piezoelectric) layer.
