    Abstract: A device includes a high-voltage amplifier to amplify a bursted signal and may couple to a driver circuit to drive a piezoelectric actuator. During the on-time of the bursted signal, a feedback circuit may compensate for non-idealities in the system and may equalize the signal at the actuator and the output of the high-voltage amplifier. During the off-time of the bursted signal, a signal conditioning circuit may sense a difference signal between the signal at the actuator and the signal at the high-voltage amplifier output and may interpret this difference signal as pressure applied to the piezoelectric actuator.

    Abstract: An input signal may be converted into a first PWM signal and a second PWM signal at a PWM controller circuit. The first PWM signal and second signal output may drive a driver circuit. The driver circuit may receive a high-voltage supply from a boost converter or other power circuit. The driver circuit may include a high-side device and a low-side device. The output of the driver circuit may drive a filter circuit, the filter circuit comprising a filter capacitor, an inductor and a haptic actuator. The haptic actuator may produce a desired haptic response at the haptic actuator.
