In this paper, the design and characteristics of a π-shaped ultrasonic motor that is applicable to optical zoom operation of a lens system for mobile phones are investigated. Its design and simulation of performances are carried out by FEM (finite element method) commercial software. As a simulation result, by applying voltage with single phase, a combined vibration is produced at the surface of a stator arm. A prototype of the motor is fabricated and its outer size is 8*4*2mm³ including the cylindrical steel rod of 2 mm in diameter as the rotor. The motor exhibits a maximum speed of 500 rpm and a power consumption of 0.3 W when driven at 20 Vpp and 64 kHz.
