Principle of piezoelectric ceramic transformer
Piezoelectric ceramic transformer is a new type of chip device that realizes low voltage input and high voltage output through the secondary energy conversion of electrical energy --- mechanical energy --- electrical energy. Its basic structure has many forms according to the shape, electrode and polarization direction, among which the piezoelectric transformer with a long sheet structure is the most commonly used. It has a simple structure, is easy to manufacture, and has a high step-up ratio.
Compared with the traditional electromagnetic transformer, the materials, product structure, process technology and working principle of the piezoelectric ceramic transformer are different. The main materials used in electromagnetic transformers are magnetic materials and conductive materials, which are used as the core and winding of the structure, respectively, and the energy conversion form is electric-magnet-electric. The main materials used in piezoelectric ceramic transformers are binary piezoelectric ceramic materials (PZT) such as lead zirconate titanate, ternary piezoelectric ceramic materials (PCM, PSM)-that is, add other elements and four on the basis of PZT Element-based piezoelectric ceramic materials (PMMN), etc. The product is made by high temperature sintering and high pressure polarization, and its energy conversion mode is electro-mechanical-electric.It can be seen that the energy conversion of the electromagnetic transformer needs to be completed in an orthogonal three-dimensional space according to its structural form, and the piezoelectric ceramic transformer can perform energy conversion in a plane. Therefore, the piezoelectric ceramic transformer is easy to design into a chip type structure.
The working principle of piezoelectric ceramic transformer is to use the characteristics of piezoelectric ceramic material-positive piezoelectric effect and reverse piezoelectric effect. The so-called positive piezoelectric effect is that this PZT material generates charge or voltage under the action (or deformation) of the force, and the reverse piezoelectric effect is that the material deforms or vibrates when a voltage is applied. The working principle of the piezoelectric ceramic transformer is to use the positive and reverse piezoelectric effect characteristics of the piezoelectric ceramic material by designing the orientation characteristics of the electrode and polarization direction of the piezoelectric ceramic body, and using the reverse piezoelectric effect to make the phase with the input terminal. The connected piezoelectric ceramic body generates mechanical vibration under the action of voltage, and then the positive piezoelectric effect causes the piezoelectric ceramic body connected to the output terminal to generate a voltage. When the impedance of the input terminal and the output terminal are not equal, the voltage and current at both ends are also not equal, thereby realizing the function of changing the magnitude of the voltage and current between the input terminal and the output terminal.
Piezoelectric ceramic transformer structure
The piezoelectric ceramic transformer uses piezoelectric materials,which uses the electromechanical conversion characteristics, and cooperates with the vibration part of the component and the motor of the power generation part to carry out polarization design. The input voltage makes the piezoelectric piece in resonance state, and then the positive piezoelectric effect will change the high strain Converted into voltage output, so as to achieve the effect of voltage transformation.
