Piezo crystal oscillator circuit design

I have a piezo ring of the foll specifications
resonant frequency 113 KHZ
Resonant impedance 100ohm
static capccitance 2000 pf

I want to design a circuit to effectively drive the piezo at 12 volts at the resonant frequency.

Can someone help me do this

I tried making a 555 oscillator and giving the output to this piezo but does not function like that . i think there is something about impedance matching involved in here that i do not understand

I need help desperately as my project is stuck up

Thanks for any pointers
 
you want to generate a 113khz signal@12v?

then you want to generate signal,using a crystal oscillator circuit , then amplify it to your voltage
 
I do not want to use the piezo to generate the frequency but the other way round i want to generate the frequency to effectively drive the crystal

actually i am interested in the meachanical vibrations of the crystals for that the piezo has to be driven at its resonance frequency . apart from this there is some theory about impedance matching involved here for maximum power transfer to the piezo
