Edit question

I just bought a board for the 113kHz mist maker like this: 

It works like intended. But now I want to build the circuit by my own for my PCB. On the web I can only find bulky designs with huge MOSFETs etc.

Maybe some of you re-build that small thing already and could share it?

If not: maybe you have an idea which inductor is used though everything’s described except for this part.

Thank you in regard folks!

• 1I already have that thing…. my question is the curcuit to integegrate the curcuit to my PCB without adding the board as it is by wires. – dessi 23 hours ago
• 1But I takes days to reproduce the US$2 toy. Or do you want to do mass production? – tlfong01 23 hours ago   
• 1I just don’t know what inductor I need for 5VIN or how to find it out. The traces I can reproduce somehow. But the chip IC has no letters on it too so I don’t know if it’s just an N555 or something else… I’m not very safe with “just sticking everything together” so I just posted it here because I need help… – dessi 22 hours ago

• 2The size of the MOSFETs necessary to drive a load are probably very well-correlated with the power you want to put into the actuator. Have you taken the time to measure the electrical power flowing into the speaker with your pre-made circuit? I bet it’s relatively small compared to what marketing says about it. – Marcus Müller 19 hours ago
• The following very educational tutorial by GreatScott explains why using NE555 and not the huge power MOSFETs: Ultrasonic Mist Maker (Using MOSFET or NE555), DIY or Buy – GreatScott (1.68M subscribers) 2017oct22, 1,106,773 views youtube.com/watch?v=aKhPj7uFD0Y – tlfong01 16 hours ago  
• So, GreatScott tells us that what we need basically is a 1.5MHz oscillator, perhaps using NE555.
