Abstract

This paper describes investigations of a low cost high voltage amplifier, which was based on specialized operational amplifiers. The purpose of the amplifier is to control piezoelectric actuators with many electrodes, such as bimorph benders, piezoelectric tubes, ring and disc benders. Proposed amplifier has two independent channels which can be configured for the specific research aim. Every channel of the device can works in inverted or non inverted mode. Also the voltage gain and current limit can be set separately.
