DRIVE CONTROL APPARATUS, ELECTRONIC DEVICE, AND DRIVE CONTROL METHOD

摘要

This invention addresses the problem of providing a drive control apparatus, an electronic device, and a drive control method that can provide good tactile feedback. This drive control apparatus drives a vibrating element in an electronic device that also has a touch panel. Said vibrating element vibrates a touch-operation surface via which touch operations are inputted to the touch panel. The drive control apparatus has a drive control unit that drives the vibrating element using a drive signal that produces ultrasonic resonance in the touch-operation surface. Said drive control unit drives the vibrating element so as to change the intensity of the ultrasonic resonance in accordance with the amount of movement of the location of touch-operation input to the touch-operation surface.
