Abstract
To improve suitability in applications with high dynamic performance requirements, the transient response characteristics of high-power piezoelectric transducers should be studied quantitatively. This paper proposes the vector reduction method to solve the complex transient equations and obtains a transient matching scheme clarifying the mechanism of electrical matching resistance on electromechanical damping. A matching scheme with a combination of full-bridge inverter, transformer and series LC circuit is designed and validated, which can provide suitable electrical damping without causing energy losses. Consequently, the experiment verifies the transient properties of the proposed scheme. For a typical piezoelectric cutting transducer with 100.8 ms response time, our scheme is verified to have high dynamic performance within frequency response time of 5.5 ms and vibration response time of 15.0 ms.
