* Introduction :ignore:
Two voltage amplifiers are tested:
- PI E-505.00 ([[https://www.pi-usa.us/en/products/controllers-drivers-motion-control-software/piezo-drivers-controllers-power-supplies-high-voltage-amplifiers/e-505-piezo-amplifier-module-602300/][link]])
- Cedrat Technology LA75B ([[https://www.cedrat-technologies.com/en/products/piezo-controllers/electronic-amplifier-boards.html][link]])
The piezoelectric actuator under test is an APA95ML from Cedrat technology.
It contains three stacks with a capacitance of $5 \mu F$ each that can be connected independently to the amplifier.

* Impedance Measurement
** Introduction :ignore:
The goal is to experimentally measure the output impedance of the voltage amplifiers.
To do so, the output voltage is first measure without any load ($V$).
It is then measure when a 10Ohm load is used ($V^\prime$).
The load ($R = 10\Omega$) and the internal resistor ($R_i$) form a voltage divider, and thus:
\[ V^\prime = \frac{R}{R + R_i} V \]
From the two values of voltage, the internal resistor value can be computed:
\[ R_i = R \frac{V - V^\prime}{V^\prime} \]
