The DRV2700 device is
a single-chip piezo driver with an integrated 105-V boost switch, integrated power
diode, and integrated fully-differential amplifier. This versatile device is capable
of driving both high-voltage and low-voltage piezoelectric loads. The input signal
can be either differential or single-ended and AC or DC coupled. The DRV2700 device supports four GPIO-controlled gains: 28.8 dB, 34.8
dB, 38.4 dB, and 40.7 dB.
The boost voltage is set using two
external resistors. The voltage applied to the switch pin (SW) and the VDD pin have
been sepearted to support independant batteries. The boost current-limit is
programmable through the R (REXT) resistor. The boost converter
architecture allows the user to optimize the DRV2700 circuit for a
given inductor based on the desired performance requirements. Additionally, this
boost converter is based on a hysteretic architecture to minimize switching losses
and therefore increase efficiency.
A typical startup time of 1.5 ms makes
the DRV2700 device an ideal piezo driver for coming out of sleep
quickly. Thermal overload protection prevents the device from damage when
overdriven.
