Abstract

See full text

In a driving apparatus for piezo-stacks, a controller repeats switching operation for turning switching elements on/off to thereby attain a determined piezo-actuator voltage. An abnormality detecting circuit determines abnormality of the piezo-stacks by comparing the number of times of charging and the number of times of discharging, or charging/discharging time periods at this occasion with those at normal time.
