Electro-acoustic transducer
An electro-acoustic transducer includes a base, a plurality of vibration portions and a connection portion. Each of the vibration portion includes a piezoelectric transduction layer and has a first connection end and a second connection end opposite to each other, and the first connection ends are connected to the base. The connection portion is separated from the base and connected to the second connection ends. The piezoelectric transduction layers are adapted to receive electrical signals to deform, such that the vibration portions are driven to vibrate and generate corresponding acoustic waves. The vibration portions are adapted to receive acoustic waves to vibrate, such that the piezoelectric transduction layers are driven to deform and generate corresponding electrical signals.
