Vishay has announced that it is releasing a new series of IHPT solenoid-based haptic actuators that are bundled with patent licenses for Immersion’s haptic technology.

The bundled offering streamlines the design-in process for these devices and eliminates the need for a separate license to implement haptic effects.

Vishay's IHPT series haptic actuators utilise compact and cost-effective solenoid technology to provide high force level HD effects with a drive voltage between 8V and 16V. The first device in the series — the IHPT1411 — provides a force level up to 120N. Dimensions for the IHPT1411 are 35mm by 35 x 16mm. Additional devices offering a variety of force levels and sizes will be available later in 2023 to cover a wide range of automotive and commercial applications.

Since Vishay's IHPT actuators operate off commonly available 12V systems with IC driving circuits, they lower the cost of implementing haptic experiences in a wide range of end products. Applications for the IHPT series include LCD touchscreens, touch panels, buttons, rotary knobs, joysticks, and other human-machine interfaces (HMI).
