Abstract
A pump system contains a vibration actuator which can be electromagnetically driven by applying an alternating-current voltage E thereto, a sealed chamber connected to a suction port and a discharge port, and a movable wall for changing a volume of the sealed chamber. The movable wall is displaced due to drive of the vibration actuator to supply fluid in the sealed chamber into a target object. The pump system controls an effective value of the alternating-current voltage E so that an amplitude Y of the vibration actuator is constant.
