Product Overview
The DRV8601DRBR is a haptic driver from Texas Instruments optimized for driving DC motors (ERM) and linear resonant actuators (LRA). It features differential output drive with up to 400mA output current from a 3.3V supply. The device offers ultra-fast 100us turn-on time, low 1.7mA quiescent current, and 10nA shutdown current, making it ideal for portable and battery-powered haptic feedback applications.
