PiezoSmart®
An active sensor identification system
which is based on the IEEE 1451.4 stand-
ard and is used for automatically setting
measuring chain parameters. The main
element of PiezoSmart is an electronic
data sheet called TEDS (Transducer Elec-
tronic Data Sheet) which contains all the
data essential for the configuration of the
measuring chain.
PiezoStar®
Crystals developed and grown by Kistler
for use in sensors for demanding applica-
