Abstract

Provided is a control device controlling an electromagnetic actuator that drives an operation device, supported in an elastically vibratable manner by an elastic support part, in one direction of a vibration direction of the operation device to vibrate. The control device includes a circuit that applies a main driving signal to a coil of the electromagnetic actuator to start vibration of the operation device in response to a touch operation on the operation device, then applies a sub-driving signal to the coil to adjust an attenuation period of the vibration. The sub-driving signal has a variable voltage varying with an offset voltage, as a center value, offset from a zero voltage, and a waveform that indicates a variation in the variable voltage is a sine function curve or a cosine function curve. The circuit applies the sub-driving signal while changing the offset voltage for each cycle.
