<p>A mode tracking transducer driver (100) for a non-linear electromagnetic transducer (102) includes a voltage controlled oscillator (104) coupled within a phase lock loop to a transducer driver (106) and a mode detector (112, 108). The voltage controlled oscillator (104) generates a variable frequency output signal, and is responsive to a frequency control signal for controlling the frequency of the output signal. The transducer driver (106) generates a transducer drive signal (502) which is coupled to the non-linear electromagnetic transducer (102) to generate a tactile alert. The mode detector (112, 108) detects a mode change between at least the first operating mode and the second operating mode of the non-linear electromagnetic transducer (102), and in response thereto generates the frequency control signal (118) which establishes a quasi-resonant frequency (204) at which the tactile energy delivered by the non-linear electromagnetic transducer (102) is maximized.</p> |
