I want to actuate the piezeoactuator which is taking more than 100vdc. But i have a sorce of less than 30vdc. Can any one tell me what to do.
Can you post a link to the datasheet for the actuator? That would help a lot. Thanks.core7916 said:I want to actuate the piezeoactuator which is taking more than 100vdc. But i have a sorce of less than 30vdc. Can any one tell me what to do.
Can you share more information about how you converted 12v to 200v..Borek said:For my Nixie lamp clock I made a boost converter that uses 12V as input and produces ~200V. Basically just a 555, a MOSFET, an inductor and a capacitor.

This is starting to sound more like your other thread (which is now closed):core7916 said:Can you share more information about how you converted 12v to 200v..
In my case i have to produce 200v from 28v source.
core7916 said:I need to design a circuit which takes around 28V of input and outputs the 200v with 20A. Can any one help me.
I dont have any datsheets of piezeoactuator. All i know is i want high voltage to actuate it. And i want high current in beginning. Lets say less than 5ms i have to apply high current then i dont need high current. Since i am fresh to these power converting i dont have much knowledge about it. Can you please suggest anythingberkeman said:This is starting to sound more like your other thread (which is now closed):You don't need that high of a power level to drive a piezo actuator. Last chance -- please link to the datasheet for the piezo actuator, and tell us your level of experience in working with high voltage electronics. Thank you.
If you read the little-biddy writing on the side of the piezo, what does it say?core7916 said:I dont have any datsheets of piezeoactuator.

Without a datasheet, you do not know voltage and you do not know current. Without a datasheet, we do not know voltage or current, so we cannot help you. So I locked this thread. If you want the thread reopened send a PM to myself or @berkeman.core7916 said:I dont have any datsheets of piezeoactuator. All i know is i want high voltage to actuate it.

A piezoelectric actuator is a type of electromechanical transducer that converts electrical energy into mechanical motion or force. It uses the piezoelectric effect, which is the ability of certain materials to generate an electric charge in response to applied mechanical stress.
A piezoelectric actuator consists of a piezoelectric material, such as quartz or ceramic, sandwiched between two electrodes. When an electric voltage is applied to the electrodes, the piezoelectric material expands or contracts, causing the actuator to move. This movement can be used to drive mechanical systems or generate vibrations.
Piezoelectric actuators offer several advantages over traditional electromagnetic actuators. They are compact, lightweight, and have a fast response time. They also have a high force-to-weight ratio and can operate in a wide range of temperatures. Additionally, they do not require lubrication or produce magnetic fields, making them ideal for use in cleanroom environments.
When designing a Piezoelectric Actuator drive circuit, factors such as the desired displacement, frequency, and voltage range should be considered. The type of piezoelectric material and its dimensions also play a crucial role in determining the circuit design. Additionally, factors such as temperature, power consumption, and signal conditioning should be taken into account.
Yes, there are some precautions to take when using a Piezoelectric Actuator. These include avoiding overloading the actuator, as it can cause damage to the piezoelectric material. It is also essential to protect the actuator from excessive heat, humidity, and mechanical shocks. Additionally, proper grounding and shielding should be implemented to prevent interference from external electrical signals.
