TI DRV2605L vibration motor driver

17.08.2015

Indication of an incoming call using vibration is now implemented in almost every phone. With the widespread use of touchscreen keyboards, an easy way is needed to notify the operator that a key has actually been pressed. One option here is to provide tactile feedback with vibration.

The new DRV2605L IC is an intelligent controller for controlling a small vibration motor or linear resonant actuator (moving core coil). The Immersion TouchSense 2200 library of special effects is already built into the microcircuit, which allows not only to "feel" the touch of a fixed touch button with your fingers, but also to provide full information about the result of the operation using distinguishable vibration effects.

Variable vibration patterns are achieved using the DRV2605L's built-in forced start, forced deceleration, PWM control, and level calibration mechanisms. The microcircuit also monitors the health of the connected actuator by detecting the states "short circuit" and "break". When used with a moving coil actuator, the DRV2605L automatically detects the resonant frequency for maximum control efficiency. DRV2605L assumes control from the microcontroller via the I2C interface and allows direct connection of a vibration motor or a coil with a resistance of more than 4 ohms.

The DRV2605L chip operates on a voltage of 2,5 ... 5,2 V and has its own consumption current of 1,9 μA in standby mode and 2,5 mA at the time of vibration effect playback (without load).

The existence of an entropy rule for quantum entanglement has been proven 09.05.2024

Quantum mechanics continues to amaze us with its mysterious phenomena and unexpected discoveries. Recently, Bartosz Regula from the RIKEN Center for Quantum Computing and Ludovico Lamy from the University of Amsterdam presented a new discovery that concerns quantum entanglement and its relation to entropy. Quantum entanglement plays an important role in modern quantum information science and technology. However, the complexity of its structure makes understanding and managing it challenging. Regulus and Lamy's discovery shows that quantum entanglement follows an entropy rule similar to that for classical systems. This discovery opens new perspectives in the field of quantum information science and technology, deepening our understanding of quantum entanglement and its connection to thermodynamics. The results of the study indicate the possibility of reversibility of entanglement transformations, which could greatly simplify their use in various quantum technologies. Opening a new rule ... >>

New method for creating powerful batteries 08.05.2024

With the development of technology and the expanding use of electronics, the issue of creating efficient and safe energy sources is becoming increasingly urgent. Researchers at the University of Queensland have unveiled a new approach to creating high-power zinc-based batteries that could change the landscape of the energy industry. One of the main problems with traditional water-based rechargeable batteries was their low voltage, which limited their use in modern devices. But thanks to a new method developed by scientists, this drawback has been successfully overcome. As part of their research, scientists turned to a special organic compound - catechol. It turned out to be an important component that can improve battery stability and increase its efficiency. This approach has led to a significant increase in the voltage of zinc-ion batteries, making them more competitive. According to scientists, such batteries have several advantages. They have b ... >>

Alcohol content of warm beer 07.05.2024

Beer, as one of the most common alcoholic drinks, has its own unique taste, which can change depending on the temperature of consumption. A new study by an international team of scientists has found that beer temperature has a significant impact on the perception of alcoholic taste. The study, led by materials scientist Lei Jiang, found that at different temperatures, ethanol and water molecules form different types of clusters, which affects the perception of alcoholic taste. At low temperatures, more pyramid-like clusters form, which reduces the pungency of the "ethanol" taste and makes the drink taste less alcoholic. On the contrary, as the temperature increases, the clusters become more chain-like, resulting in a more pronounced alcoholic taste. This explains why the taste of some alcoholic drinks, such as baijiu, can change depending on temperature. The data obtained opens up new prospects for beverage manufacturers, ... >>

Molecules stopped at absolute zero temperature 09.04.2020

A group of US physicists have cooled sodium-lithium molecules to a temperature of 220 nanokelvins by colliding with ultracold sodium atoms.

Evaporative cooling is used both to lower our body temperature when we sweat, and to cool rooms and appliances. The nature of this phenomenon is that the hot particles of the cooled system collide with coolant particles, transferring their momentum to them, and the latter, in turn, leave the system.

In atomic physics, evaporative cooling is used to reduce the energy of vibrations of an ensemble of atoms. The technology uses an electromagnetic field to trap atoms in an optical trap. Over time, the atoms collide with each other and some of them become more mobile than others. Such high-energy atoms leave the trap, thereby lowering the energy of the entire system and lowering the temperature of the remaining atoms.

Cooled quantum systems can be used as a simulator of various systems of condensed matter physics or nuclear physics. However, individual atoms have too few degrees of freedom, which limits the capabilities of the simulator. Over the past 15 years, serious progress has been made in cooling more complex objects such as molecules, but, unfortunately, the temperatures achieved have so far been limited to tens of millikelvins.

Physicists from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and Harvard University, led by Professor Alan Jamison, have for the first time managed to cool an ensemble of molecules by evaporative cooling to a temperature of 220 nanokelvins. To do this, the scientists placed 30 NaLi molecules and 100 sodium atoms in an optical trap in which the particles were held by an electromagnetic field.
