Diodes Inc. has launched its PAM8907 piezoelectric sounder driver, designed to maximize the sound pressure level (SPL) from a ceramic/piezo sounder. The piezo sounder driver has a built-in synchronous ...

With its built-in boost converter, the PAM8907 piezoelectric sounder driver from Diodes is capable of driving a ceramic/piezo sounder with up to a 31-V PP output. The part maximizes sound pressure ...

Will piezoelectric-based speakers replace traditional speakers over the coming years in space-constrained devices? We have definitely seen the use of piezo transducers in e.g. high-end televisions ...

Like all ceramics, piezo ceramics are brittle materials that are well suited to handling compressive loads but are highly sensitive to bending, shear and tensile loads. A number of mechanical ...

Japan's Kyocera Corporation has combined a piezoelectric actuator with a special resin film to produce a proprietary, piezo film speaker that is considerably thinner and lighter than conventional ...

The thinner our devices become, the less room there is for speakers and other thicker components. Kyocera has a solution, however: it just modified its Smart Sonic Receiver conduction technology for ...

PLANO, Texas--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Diodes Incorporated (Nasdaq: DIOD) introduces the PAM8907 piezoelectric sounder driver, for maximizing sound pressure level (SPL) delivery from a ceramic/piezo sounder.

Piezoelectric speakers are found all around you, from musical greeting cards to the tweeters in your car stereo setup. Making your own piezo speakers is actually very easy, as [Steven] shows us after ...

Integrating a multi-mode charge pump boost converter, the PAM8904 from Diodes drives piezoelectric sounders at up to 18Vpp from a 3V power supply. Bringing higher volume at a lower operating current ...
