PIEZOELECTRIC TRANSFORMER

摘要

This disclosure provides implementations of electromechanical systems piezoelectric transformers, devices, apparatus, systems, and related processes. In one aspect, a transformer includes piezoelectric means including piezoelectric material, first conductive means arranged over a first surface of the piezoelectric material, and second conductive means arranged over a second surface opposite the first surface. The first conductive means includes a first set of electrodes (112) and a second set of electrodes (114) interdigitated with the first set. The second conductive means includes at least a third set of electrodes. The transformer also includes first coupling means capable of receiving an input signal, and second coupling means capable of being electrically connected to a load and capable of outputting an output signal. The first set of electrodes is in electrical connection with the first coupling means and the second set of electrodes is in electrical connection with the second coupling means.
