DRV8601: Haptic Driver Replacement for MAX1749

Part Number: DRV8601

Hello, 

I'm looking through TI's motor drive/haptic driver portfolios for a device to replace a MAX1749 vibrator motor driver.  

I found the DRV8601 to be a decent replacement but was wondering if there are any other similar TI haptic drivers that would perform the same function but without the need for a PWM input or other communication interface (SPI, I2C, SMBus, etc..).  The MAX1749 is activated with a single ON/OFF enable pin.

Thank you

  • Hi Tony,

    I think DRV8601 is the simples solution, other devices have more features and controls.
    Perhaps this driver can be combined with an oscillator to only enable the device using the EN pin.
