Abstract
Methods, systems, and devices for an H-bridge driver for haptics and camera voice coil motor applications are described. A device may generate a control signal for an application executing on the device such as a camera application, a gaming application, or any application receiving a user input or outputting feedback to the user. The device may generate the control signal using a voice coil motor driver of a camera component of the device. The device may drive a haptics motor based on the generated control signal and generate a haptic response based on driving the haptics motor. The device may, as a result, output the generated haptic response. Additionally or alternatively, the device may drive a voice coil motor based on the generated control signal and may control a camera component of the device based on driving the voice coil motor or the haptics motor, or both.
