Haptic feedback actuators streamline design-in process

 The AEC-Q200 IHPT-A actuators feature high force, High Definition (HD) vibrations for clear tactile feedback in noisy environments for consumer, medical, and industrial LCD displays, touchscreens, touch switches, button control and automotive applications.

These feedback actuators streamline the design-in process with immersion licenses, eliminating the need to purchase a separate license to implement sophisticated haptic effects.

Vishay expands its lineup of IHPT solenoid-based haptic actuators featuring Immersion Corporation licenses with four new AEC-Q200 qualified devices for automotive applications, including dashboards, touchscreens, and centre consoles.

These actuators feature two-piece magnetic solenoid construction in four sizes (29 × 21mm to 44 × 37mm), with mounting holes comprised of a stationary "U" core and moving "I-bar" for easy implementation.

Maximum output force varies from 25 to 120 Newtons depending on size.

The AEC-Q200 IHPT-A devices drive up to a 0.5kg load to 6g of acceleration with a 12V, 5ms pulse, delivering high force and vibration capability for clear, high definition (HD) tactile feedback.

The low nominal 12V operation of the automotive IHPT-A devices eliminates the need for the additional high voltage circuitry required by piezo actuators and provides significant advantages over linear resonant, linear wideband, and eccentric rotating mass actuators while reducing component height and delivering higher force.
