1. A device for removing residual vibration of a linear resonant actuator, the device comprising:
an actuator driving circuit for driving the linear resonant actuator;
a control logic for controlling driving of the linear resonant actuator; and
a zero cross point detection unit for detecting a zero cross point of a BEMF signal by the driving of the linear resonant actuator,
wherein the actuator driving circuit includes:
a braking signal generator for generating and outputting a unit step driving wave that generates the same vibration waveform as a residual vibration waveform of the linear resonant actuator as a braking signal; and
wherein the braking signal generator further includes a boost converter,
and the control logic generates the braking signal by driving the boost converter when a voltage required to generate the braking signal is higher than a voltage of a power supply; and
wherein the control logic controls the actuator driving circuit so that the braking signal for removing the residual vibration after the driving of the linear resonant actuator is applied to the linear resonant actuator at a point of time when the BEMF signal crosses a zero point, the braking signal being applied in an opposite direction in which it is possible to cancel the residual vibration waveform of the linear resonant actuator.
