REGulator – The electronics that supplies piezos with power and make it working

Piezo actuators and sensors need dedicated electronics. Only the combination of actuator and electronics forms a functional piezo unit. Piezotechnics electronics solutions ranges from amplifier modules, bespoke standalone desktop units, to sophisticated controller boards for open standard computer systems used in large accelerator laboratories. These modules allows the seamless integration of piezos in a high performance computer controller system for large plants.

The REGUlator series comes with three product groups to serve any needs:

1. High performance piezo driver boards for a modern open computer system standard. This computer standard that is used in many large-scale physical experiments such as high-energy particle accelerators for the reliable operation of the superconducting cavities. For example the large accelerator DESY XFEL is controlled by MTCA.4 with a large number of these computer systems. An exemplary application is the control of complex laser test systems.PIEZOTECHNICS supplied the piezo driver boards compliant with the MTCA.4: REGUlatorMTCA,

2. Low Cost REGUlatorEco are a range of standard piezo drivers for integration in customers electronics systems. Typically they are analogue drivers which amplifies the commanded signal by a fix gain factor.

3. REGUlatorCustom are bespoke piezo electronics. A specialty is the construction of power electronics with a l and high output power and currents. This allows especially to realize very fast reacting actuation systems. PIEZOTECHNICS offers bespoken prototypes and series.
