Abstract

See full text

The present disclosure relates to driver circuitry for driving a piezoelectric transducer. The circuitry comprises: output stage circuitry configured to receive an input signal and to drive the piezoelectric transducer to produce the output signal; variable voltage power supply circuitry configured to output a supply voltage for the charge drive output stage circuitry, wherein the supply voltage output by the variable voltage power supply circuitry varies based on the input signal; a supply capacitor for receiving the supply voltage output by the variable voltage power supply circuitry; a reservoir capacitor; and circuitry for transferring charge between the reservoir capacitor and the supply capacitor.
