304-103 Smallest 4mm Surface Mount Vibration Motor

Precision Microdrives is proud to launch its smallest vibration motor yet - the 304-103. This motor is also the worlds smallest 4mm SMT vibration motor with dimensions of just Ø 4mm diameter by 3.5mm tall. The ultra low profile of this motor is ideal for haptic feedback functions in tablet PCs and tablet phones.

Since the launch of Apple's iPad, the tablet form factor has become ubiquitous, and more recent models starting to contain our low-profile reflow SMT vibration motors like 304-103 4mm surface mount vibration motor. These vibration motors are beginning to offer every more complicated vibration feedback mechanisms as software OS's like Google's Android start to contain hooks for haptic feedback functionality.

App designers are using haptic feedback for alerting, gaming and multi-sense interaction with users, whilst the OS itself uses the miniature vibration motors to make software buttons feel like real tactile buttons.

Vibration motors are also used frequently for vibration feedback, for example to indicate incoming phone calls, whose purpose is more to alert users of an event rather than replicating the feel of a tactile switches. 

Precision Microdrives engineering support team is comprised of experts in the field of applied haptic feedback, particularly for touch interfaces and handheld battery powered products. They are here to help customers find the best vibration motor for their application.

Low-profile vibration motors are just part of a much wider range of 4mm to 7mm Pico Vibe™ vibration motors, which also come other form factors, such as PCB vibration motors and coin vibration motors.

Precision Microdrives help a lot of customers with prototyping and pre-production activities by holding the largest and widest range of stocked vibration motors in the world. All of these parts are available for same day dispatch and worldwide delivery. Their volume throughput comes however from a wide range of customers who are using their parts in production, scaling from 250 ~ 100,000 pcs per month.
