Piezo Element 有關壓電陶瓷蜂鳴片

Piezo Element
The good points to choose piezo element is that the cost is lower than others and you can design the sound chamber to reach a special sound. However, during assemblage, the experienced skill of soldering wires is strictly demanded, otherwise large defective products such as small sound, soundless, deviated frequency or electric leakage might happen. Defects are resulted from:


Piezo element and chamber both have their resonance points. How to match the two resonance points to get loud SPL and wide frequency range, the mechanical design has become a test. Material, thickness, size and depth of the sound hole and the capacity of chamber are the factors which will affect the chamber’s resonance.


The bad fix method
There are two methods for fixing the piezo elements:


Nodal mounting method
This method is to fix the nodal diameter of buzzer element to the supporting ring of the plate; better SPL can be obtained. Finding the pivot and resonance frequency of element, then the piezo element will have max vibration and SPL.

Circumference Fixing Method
This method is to fix the outside circumference of the buzzer element to the supporting right of the plate. Wide frequency range can be obtained, and easier to design. For these two methods, flexible adhesive such as silicon should be used between the buzzer element and the support ring.

Defective soldering
During the soldering, the size and position of the solder point should be the same. The temperature and pressure should be well controlled to avoid badly soldering, which will cause short circuit or insufficient isolated impedance. Besides, the iron need to be separated for the two solder points, because the ceramic wafer contain a large amount of lead, using the same iron will cause the fail of RoHS test.


有關壓電陶瓷蜂鳴片
選用壓電陶瓷蜂鳴片的好處是, 低成本,可自行設計音腔來達成特殊的聲音要求,但在組裝,焊線時的技術要求較嚴,若無相關經驗或技術,可能會有大量的不良品產生,小聲,無聲,頻率偏差,漏電都有可能會發生.這些不良大都起因於:

蜂鳴片固定方式不良
蜂鳴片常見的固定方式有二種,
節點固定(左圖):可以獲得較高的音壓,但需知道蜂鳴片的諧振頻率,找到片子振動的支點,使蜂鳴片可產生最大的振動,就可達到最大的音壓,

圓週固定(右圖):可以獲得較寬的頻寬,設計上也比較簡單,這二種方式都最好以矽膠(Silicon)等有彈性的膠來粘合機殼跟蜂嗚片,使蜂嗚片容易振動.

音腔設計不良
蜂鳴片及音腔都有各自的諧振點,如何將二個諧振點配在一起,取得最大的音壓,或是較寬的頻寬,這就考驗機構設計的能力,會影響音腔諧振的因素有: 材質, 肉厚, 音孔大小,音孔深度,音腔容積..等.

焊接不良
焊線時的焊點大小,位置都要一致,烙鐵的溫度,時間,壓力也要控制,以免把陶瓷片焊壞,造成短路或絕緣阻抗不足,另外二個焊點的烙鐵需分開使用,因為陶瓷片含大量的鉛,若再來焊銅片,會造成RoHS檢測不過的問題.

Buzzer and Speaker 蜂鳴器與喇叭的比較

喇叭與蜂鳴器都是發出聲響的零件,若只是想發出一些警告音,提醒音,這二者其實都是可以使用的:Buzzer and speaker are the acoustic components that can generate sound, if you just need sound to warn or remind, both of them are fine.

蜂鳴器分為電磁式及壓電式二大類,在耗電流,尺寸,頻率,驅動方式上有些不同,但基本上都是將某一個頻點的音壓拉到最高,以期用最小的尺寸,就可以發出很高的音壓,若不在諧振點的音壓就會很小,甚至會相差20dB以上,且蜂鳴器的聲音,由於是用方波發出來的,人耳聽起來就比較刺耳一些,We divide buzzer into piezo and magnetic buzzer. There are some differences in power consumption, dimension, frequency and drive method between piezo and magnetic buzzer, however, both of them basically pull the SPL to the highest at a certain frequent point in order to generate as high SPL as possible in the small size. The SPL will be very low if it is not at the resonance point, even 20dB difference. By the way, the sound of buzzer is drove by square waves; therefore it is harsh to the human ears.

小喇叭是以弦波推動,相較於蜂鳴器人耳聽起來會舒服許多,但因為頻寬較寬,可用的頻率也較低,故在同尺寸時,音壓一定會小於蜂鳴器,且需要音箱的輔助來增進低頻的響應,不然整體的聲音會很小.Micro speaker is drove by the sine waves, to compare with buzzer, the sound is much more comfortable for us. However, the bandwidth is wider, and the frequency is lower, therefore, the micro speaker’s SPL must be lower than the buzzer with the same size, and also need enclosure to help the low frequency, otherwise the sound will be very small.

How to choose a buzzer 如何選用蜂鳴器

How to choose a buzzer

There are many different kinds of buzzer to choose, first we need to know a few parameters, such as voltage, current, drive method, dimension, mounting type, and the most important thing is how much SPL and frequency we want.Operating voltage: Normally, the operating voltage for a magnetic buzzer is from 1.5V to 24V, for a piezo buzzer is from 3V to 220V. However, in order to get enough SPL, we suggest giving at least 9V to drive a piezo buzzer.Consumption current: According to the different voltage, the consumption current of a magnetic buzzer is from dozens to hundreds of mill amperes; oppositely, the piezo type saves much more electricity, only needs a few mill amperes, and consumes three times current when the buzzer start to work.Driving method: Both magnetic and piezo buzzer have self drive type to choose. Because of the internal set drive circuit, the self drive buzzer can emit sound as long as connecting with the direct current. Due to the different work principle, the magnetic buzzer need to be driven by 1/2 square waves, and the piezo buzzer need square waves to get better sound output.Dimension: The dimension of the buzzer affects its SPL and the frequency, the dimension of the magnetic buzzer is from 7 mm to 25 mm; the piezo buzzer is from 12 mm to 50 mm, or even bigger.Connecting way: Dip type, Wire type, SMD type, and screwed type for big piezo buzzer are usually seen.SPL: Buzzer is usually tested the SPL at the distance of 10 cm, if distance double, the SPL will decay about 6 dB; oppositely, the SPL will increase 6 dB when the distance is shortened by one time. The SPL of the magnetic buzzer can reach to around 85 dB/ 10 cm; the piezo buzzer can be designed to emit very loud sound, for example, the common siren, are mostly made of piezo buzzer.

如何選用蜂鳴器
蜂鳴器的種類規格繁多,需先知道幾個參數 ( 電壓,電流,驅動方式,尺寸,連接/固定方式),當然更重要的是,想要獲的聲音 (音壓大小,頻率高低),
工作電壓: 電磁式的蜂鳴器, 從1.5到24V, 壓電式的從3V到220V都是可行的,但一般壓電的還是建議有9V以上的電壓,以獲得較大的聲音.
消耗電流: 電磁式的依電壓的不同,從幾十到上百毫安培都有,壓電式的就省電的多,幾毫安培就可以正常的動作, 且在蜂鳴器啟動時,瞬間需消耗約三倍的電流,
驅動方式: 二種蜂鳴器都有自激式的,只要接上直流電(DC)即可發聲,因為已內建了驅動線路在蜂鳴器中了,因為動作原理的不同,電磁式蜂鳴器要用1/2方波來驅動,壓電的用方波,才能有較好的聲音輸出.
尺寸: 蜂鳴器的尺寸會影響到音量的大小,頻率的高低,電磁式的最小從7mm到最大的25mm,壓電式的從12mm到50mm或更大都有.
連接方式: 一般常見的有插針(DIP), 焊線(Wire), 貼片(SMD), 壓電式大顆的還有鎖螺絲的方式.
音壓: 蜂鳴器常以10cm的距離做為測試的標準,距離增加一倍,大概會衰減6dB, 反之距離縮短一倍則會增加6dB,電磁式蜂鳴器大約能達到85dB / 10cm的水準,壓電式的就可以做的很大聲,常見的警報器,大都是以壓電蜂鳴器製成.
