### Model {#model}
A model of a multi-layer monolithic piezoelectric stack actuator is described in <sup id="c823f68dd2a72b9667a61b3c046b4731"><a class="reference-link" href="#fleming10_nanop_system_with_force_feedb" title="Fleming, Nanopositioning System With Force Feedback for High-Performance Tracking and Vibration Control, {IEEE/ASME Transactions on Mechatronics}, v(3), 433-447 (2010).">(Fleming, 2010)</a></sup> ([Notes]({{< relref "fleming10_nanop_system_with_force_feedb" >}})).
A model of a multi-layer monolithic piezoelectric stack actuator is described in ([Fleming 2010](#org7ef2e50)) ([Notes]({{< relref "fleming10_nanop_system_with_force_feedb" >}})).
Basically, it can be represented by a spring \\(k\_a\\) with the force source \\(F\_a\\) in parallel.
The relation between the applied voltage \\(V\_a\\) to the generated force \\(F\_a\\) is:
\\[ F\_a = g\_a V\_a, \quad g\_a = d\_{33} n k\_a \\]
with:
- \\(d\_{33}\\) is the piezoelectric strain constant [m/V]
- \\(n\\) is the number of layers
- \\(k\_a\\) is the actuator stiffness [N/m]

<a id="jabben07_mechat"></a>Jabben, L., *Mechatronic design of a magnetically suspended rotating platform* (Doctoral dissertation) (2007). Delft University, . [](#3b7899e183dba866e6a6419cf820467f)
<div class="examp">
<div></div>
Let's take an example.
- \\(x\_{fr} = 170 V\\)
- \\(C\_{snr} = 85 dB\\)
- \\(f\_c = 200 Hz\\)
The Power Spectral Density of the output voltage is:
\\[ S\_{snr} = \frac{170^2}{8 \cdot 200 \cdot {10^{\frac{2 \cdot 85}{20}}}} = 5.7 \cdot 10^{-8}\ V^2/Hz \\]
And the RMS of that noise up to \\(f\_c\\) is:
\\[ S\_{rms} = \sqrt{S\_{snr} \cdot f\_c} \approx 3.4\ mV \\]
</div>
## Convert SNR to Noise RMS value {#convert-snr-to-noise-rms-value}
The RMS value of the noise can be computed from:
\\[ N\_\text{rms} = 10^{-\frac{S\_{snr}}{20}} S\_\text{rms} \\]
where \\(S\_{snr}\\) is the SNR in dB and \\(S\_\text{rms}\\) is the RMS value of a sinus taking the full range.
If the full range is \\(\Delta V\\), then:
\\[ S\_\text{rms} = \frac{\Delta V/2}{\sqrt{2}} \\]
<div class="examp">
<div></div>
As an example, let's take a voltage amplifier with a full range of \\(\Delta V = 20V\\) and a SNR of 85dB.
The RMS value of the noise is then:
\\[ n\_\text{rms} = 10^{-\frac{S\_{nrs}}{20}} s\_\text{rms} \\]
\\[ n\_\text{rms} = 10^{-\frac{85}{20}} \frac{10}{\sqrt{2}} \approx 0.4 mV\_\text{rms} \\]
</div>
## Convert wanted Noise RMS value to required SNR {#convert-wanted-noise-rms-value-to-required-snr}
If the wanted full range and RMS value of the noise are defined, the required SNR can be computed from:
\\[ S\_{snr} = 20 \log \frac{\text{Signal, rms}}{\text{Noise, rms}} \\]
<div class="examp">
<div></div>
Let's say the wanted noise is \\(1 mV, \text{rms}\\) for a full range of \\(20 V\\), the corresponding SNR is:
\\[ S\_{snr} = 20 \log \frac{\frac{20/2}{\sqrt{2}}}{10^{-3}} \approx 77dB \\]
</div>
## Noise Density to RMS noise {#noise-density-to-rms-noise}
From ([Fleming 2010](#org68e05a9)):
\\[ \text{RMS noise} = \sqrt{2 \times \text{bandwidth}} \times \text{noise density} \\]
If the noise is normally distributed, the RMS value is also the standard deviation \\(\sigma\\).
The peak to peak amplitude is then approximatively \\(6 \sigma\\).
<div class="exampl">
<div></div>
- noise density = \\(20 pm/\sqrt{Hz}\\)
- bandwidth = 100Hz
\\[ \sigma = \sqrt{2 \times 100} \times 20 = 0.28nm RMS \\]
The peak-to-peak noise will be approximately \\(6 \sigma = 1.7 nm\\)
</div>

## Voltage Amplifiers to drive Capacitive Load {#voltage-amplifiers-to-drive-capacitive-load}
### Limitation in Current {#limitation-in-current}
The piezoelectric stack can be represented as a capacitance.
Let's take a capacitance driven by a voltage amplifier (Figure [1](#org0d9f468)).
<a id="org0d9f468"></a>
{{< figure src="/ox-hugo/voltage_amplifier_capacitance.png" caption="Figure 1: Piezoelectric actuator model with a voltage source" >}}
The equation linking the voltage to the current is:
\\[ I = C \frac{dU}{dt} \\]
Suppose we want to drive the piezo with a voltage:
\\[ U(t) = U\_0 \sin(\omega\_0 t) \\]
The required current is:
\\[ I = C U\_0 \omega\_0 \cos(\omega\_0 t) \\]
Thus, for a specified maximum current \\(I\_\text{max}\\), the "power bandwidth" will be:
\\[ \omega\_{0, \text{max}} = \frac{I\_\text{max}}{C U\_0}, \quad f\_{0, \text{max}} = \frac{I\_\text{max}}{C U\_0} \frac{1}{2 \pi} \\]
- Below \\(\omega\_{0, \text{max}}\\), a voltage amplitude \\(U\_0\\) can be applied to the piezoelectric load without reaching the maximum current \\(I\_\text{max}\\).
- Above \\(\omega\_{0, \text{max}}\\), the maximum current \\(I\_\text{max}\\) is reached and the maximum voltage that can be applied decreases with frequency:
\\[ U\_\text{max} = \frac{I\_\text{max}}{\omega C} \\]
The maximum voltage as a function of frequency is shown in Figure [2](#org8625e7c).
```matlab
Vpkp = 170; % [V]
Imax = 30e-3; % [A]
C = 1e-6; % [F]
(1/(2*pi))*Imax/(C * Vpkp/2) % Fmax [Hz]
```
```text
56.172
```
<a id="org8625e7c"></a>
{{< figure src="/ox-hugo/voltage_amplifier_max_V_piezo.png" caption="Figure 2: Maximum voltage as a function of the frequency for \\(C = 1 \mu F\\), \\(I\_\text{max} = 30mA\\) and \\(V\_{pkp} = 170 V\\)" >}}
Similarly, the voltage rise time is determined by the Capacitance of the piezoelectric stack and by the maximum current that the amplifier can deliver:
\\[ t\_c = \frac{\Delta U C}{I\_\text{max}} \\]
with \\(t\_c\\) in seconds, \\(\Delta U\\) in volts, \\(C\\) in Farads and \\(I\_\text{max}\\) in Amperes.
If driven at \\(\Delta U = 100V\\), \\(C = 1 \mu F\\) and \\(I\_\text{max} = 1 A\\), then:
\\[ t\_c = \frac{100 \cdot 10^{-6}}{1} = 0.1 ms \\]
### Amplifiers for Low Voltage PZT {#amplifiers-for-low-voltage-pzt}
Piezoelectric Stack Actuators are behaving like capacitor for the Amplifiers.
Specifications are usually:
- Maximum Current
- DC Gain (usually around 10)
- Output Noise or [Signal to Noise Ratio]({{< relref "signal_to_noise_ratio" >}})
The bandwidth can be estimated from the Maximum Current and the Capacitance of the Piezoelectric Actuator.
