| Abstract | Electrically series-connected PZT (Pb(Zr,Ti)O 3 ) generates high output voltage when the elements are subjected to stress. For the application of series-connected PZT elements to power harvesters, the influence of parasitic capacitances on the output voltage and the generating output power are investigated numerically and experimentally. Numerical calculations using a circuit simulator, SPICE validated that the output voltage is multiplied for the series-connected PZT elements. The investigations about the influence of parasitic capacitance indicate that the there is an optimum number of series-connection. From measurements of the output voltage of the series-connected PZT, it is verified that a proper choice of electric resistance generates the best output power. We conclude that a proper design of the SC-PZT and the peripheral circuit realize a power harvester with high output power using SC-PZT. |
