Abstract

This paper presents design results of anultra-small actuator for auto focus or optical zoom function of mobile phone cameras. The consideration of the actuator is tubular type having a large hole in its center to arrange some optical lenses. The stator consists of 3-phase windings, and the mover is designed to an Nd injection permanent magnet(PM) which magnetized with multi-pole polar pattern. From the numerical analysis that taking into account the magnetizing pattern of the PM, the thrust of the designed actuator is about 40mN with the outer diameter of 7mm.
