Ultrasonic transducers are piezo components or piezo systems operated a resonance frequency and converting electrical energy in a new format. This means the electrical energy can be converted in electrical energy with a different voltage, converted in a sound wave in metal, water or air or converted in evaporated liquid. Essential for most of the application is that operating at resonance frequency the losses are as small as possible preventing overheating and optimizing for energy consumption. In many cases an additional sensor is used to listen to the sound wave. In some applications the piezo actuators itself is used as a sensor.
