The Adafruit STEMMA Piezo Driver Amp uses the PAM8904 switched-capacitor driver to amplify signals for piezo elements at up to 300 kHz. With bridge-tied load (BTL) output and up to 3× voltage multiplication, it can deliver approximately 13 Vpp — much louder than driving a piezo directly from a 3V microcontroller.

The STEMMA JST-PH connector makes wiring simple: provide 3–5V DC power and a square wave signal (20 Hz to 300 kHz), connect your piezo to the terminal block, and set the gain with the onboard dual DIP switch.

Key Features

  • PAM8904 Piezo Driver – Switched-cap BTL driver with built-in voltage boosting
  • Frequency Range – 20 Hz to 300 kHz (suitable for audio and ultrasonic applications)
  • Selectable Gain – Off, 1×, 2×, or 3× via dual DIP switch
  • Up to ~13 Vpp Output – At 3× gain with differential BTL output
  • 3–5V DC Input – STEMMA JST-PH connector for plug-and-play wiring
  • Terminal Block Output – Easy connection to piezo elements

Ideal For

  • Loud piezo buzzer and alert systems
  • Ultrasonic distance sensing
  • Audio tone generation
  • Any project needing high-voltage piezo drive

Package Contents

  • 1× STEMMA Piezo Driver Amp breakout (PAM8904)
Important: When powering from 5V DC, use 2× gain maximum (10V output). Only use 3× gain with 3.3V power (also ~10V output). The 15V output at 5V/3× exceeds the chip's rated voltage. Piezo element and JST-PH cable not included.
