Back to topHow does PUI Audio's part numbering system work?
Projects Unlimited has adopted a "Smart Part Numbering System" that includes the device's parameters. This allows you to identify the device type, size, voltage, frequency and so on just by reviewing the part number. Note: The “Smart Part Numbering System” does not apply to all parts.
Back to topDoes PUI comply with the RoHS requirements?
After the European Union passed the “Restriction of the use of certain hazardous substances in electrical and electronic equipment”, commonly known as “RoHS” legislation 2002/95/EC, PUI Audio has worked diligently to comply with the RoHS requirements.
Back to topDoes PUI Audio use any of the chemical substances listed in the European Union's REACH (Registration, Evaluation, Authorization and Restriction of Chemicals) list?
With the increasing concerns of hazardous substances in our environment, we would like to inform you that our products do not contain any of the chemical substances listed below per the European Union's REACH Substance of Very High Concern (SVHC) candidate list.

Back to topWhat is a feedback?
The ceramic can be configured with or without a feedback. The feedback is used in conjunction with an external circuit, see figure 1, to monitor the operation of the piezo bender and adjust the input signal to maintain a consistent output frequency. The resultant effect is an output with higher sound pressure level (dBA) and lower distortion due to frequency drift.
