Dumb Question - Wiring Xducer

[Brad]

I'm trying to figure out how to wire the piezos. Series/Parallel??? I had assumed series, but started trying to confuse myself after revisiting Dan Fountains page, and really got overloaded on the following link.

Anyone have any input.


Thanks,


Brad

Brad,


I would connect them parallel.


On the webpage you mentioned it shows the electrical equivalent of an element.


If you want to do hightech calculations on an element, then that is how it looks like "electronicaly".


I do not want to do any difficult calculations, I just 'bang' 800 volts on them, and expect some echo's...hehe


Best regards, Jan
