AST-01708MR-R

Overview

The AST-01708MR-R is a piezoelectric buzzer manufactured by PUI Audio, Inc. This component features a rectangular form factor designed for surface-mount technology applications. It operates as an active device, meaning it includes internal oscillation circuitry to generate sound when a DC voltage is applied. The unit is engineered for audible alerting functions in consumer electronics and industrial equipment.

Feature Summary

• Active piezoelectric operation with integrated oscillator
• Surface-mount compatible rectangular package design
• Direct DC voltage drive capability

Applications

• Consumer electronic device alerts
• Industrial control panel signaling
• Medical equipment status indicators

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific acoustic output specifications against your system requirements before procurement. Confirm that the operating voltage range matches your power supply design. Ensure the mounting footprint aligns with your PCB layout constraints. Check for any RoHS compliance documentation if required by your manufacturing standards.

Selection Notes

Select this component based on its active nature which simplifies driver circuit design compared to passive buzzers. Consider the physical dimensions of the rectangular package to ensure adequate space on the printed circuit board. Evaluate the required sound pressure level for the intended application environment to ensure audibility.

Part Context

This part belongs to PUI Audio's line of piezoelectric buzzers. These components are distinct from electromagnetic buzzers due to their use of piezoelectric materials for sound generation. The series typically offers various form factors and mounting options to suit different enclosure designs.

Replacement Considerations

Consult official PUI Audio substitution guides for verified equivalent parts. Ensure any replacement maintains the same active functionality and electrical interface. Verify mechanical compatibility including pinout and mounting hole positions.
