Abstract: A system for detecting displacement of a movable member of an electromagnetic transducer having a magnetic coil-driven linear actuator with a static member and a movable mass mechanically coupled to the static member and having a back electromotive force present across terminals of a coil of the electromagnetic transducer is provided. The system may include a resistive-inductive-capacitive sensor comprising the coil, a driver configured to drive the resistive-inductive-capacitive sensor with a driving signal, a measurement circuit communicatively coupled to the resistive-inductive-capacitive sensor and configured to measure one or more of phase information and amplitude information associated with the resistive-inductive-capacitive sensor and based on the one or more of phase information and amplitude information, determine a displacement of movable mass, wherein the displacement of the movable mass causes a change in an impedance of the resistive-inductive-capacitive sensor.

Abstract: A method for identifying a mechanical impedance of an electromagnetic load may include generating a waveform signal for driving an electromagnetic load and, during driving of the electromagnetic load by the waveform signal or a signal derived therefrom, receiving a current signal representative of a current associated with the electromagnetic load and a back electromotive force signal representative of a back electromotive force associated with the electromagnetic load. The method may also include implementing an adaptive filter to identify parameters of the mechanical impedance of the electromagnetic load, wherein an input of a coefficient control for adapting coefficients of the adaptive filter is a first signal derived from the back electromotive force signal and a target of the coefficient control for adapting coefficients of the adaptive filter is a second signal derived from the current signal.

Abstract: Driver circuitry for driving an electromechanical load with a drive output signal based on a digital reference signal at a first sample rate, the drive output signal inducing a first electrical quantity at the electromechanical load, the driver circuitry comprising: a function block configured, based on said first electrical quantity, to digitally determine at a second sample rate higher than the first sample rate an adjustment signal indicative of a second electrical quantity which would be induced at a target output impedance of the driver circuitry due to said first electrical quantity; and a driver configured to generate the drive output signal based on the reference signal and the adjustment signal to cause the drive output signal to behave as if an output impedance of the driver circuitry has been adjusted to comprise the target output impedance, wherein the first electrical quantity is a current and the second electrical quantity is a voltage, or vice versa.
