Abstract: An energizing circuit and methods and systems for same are described. One exemplary energizing circuit incorporated into a fluid ejecting device includes a piezoelectric actuator configured to selectively eject fluid from the fluid ejecting device. The circuit also includes an avalanched device electrically coupled to the piezoelectric actuator and configured to be triggered at a predetermined voltage level, and wherein the triggering of the avalanche device causes the piezoelectric actuator to be activated sufficiently to cause fluid to be ejected from the fluid ejecting device.
