Overview

The CMT-1203-SMT-TR is a surface-mount piezo buzzer transducer designed for audio feedback in compact electronic assemblies. This externally driven component features a side-facing sound port and a low 3mm profile, making it suitable for designs with height constraints. It operates over a wide temperature range from -40 to +120 degrees Celsius, ensuring reliability in demanding thermal environments.

Why Choose This Part

This transducer offers a wide operating voltage range up to 25V and extremely low current consumption typical of piezo technology. Its SMT package with Sn plating is compatible with high-temperature lead-free reflow processes, and the 120C maximum operating temperature exceeds standard consumer-grade specifications.

Applications

User Interface Feedback
Provides audible clicks or tones in response to button presses on control panels.
Status Indicators
Signals system alerts or process completion in industrial and medical monitoring equipment.
Portable Electronics
Utilizes the side sound port to deliver audio in thin handheld devices where top-porting is blocked.

Getting Started

To drive this transducer, provide a square wave at its resonant frequency using a microcontroller PWM peripheral or a dedicated oscillator circuit. Ensure the driving circuit can handle the peak-to-peak voltage required for the desired sound pressure level, and consider a flyback diode if using a transistor-based drive stage.
