Multi-layer piezo technology from TDK-EPC to reduce the input voltage requirements.

New Scale Technologies, Inc. (Victor, NY) has announced a breakthrough in piezo motion control system design. The SQUIGGLE RV reduced voltage linear drive system consists of a SQL-RV-1.8-6-12 SQUIGGLE motor and NSD-2101 drive ASIC. It is a miniature piezo motor drive solution with a driver chip that is smaller than the motor and driven directly from battery power as low as 2.3 VDC without the need for a voltage boost. Features include:

• Multi-layer piezo technology from TDK-EPC to reduce the input voltage requirements.
• A tiny size of 2.8 x 2.8 x 6 mm.
• A smart IC that measures only 1.8 x 1.8 mm and drives the SQUIGGLE RV motor directly, without the need for an external boost circuit.
