Hi guys,

I am trying to make sense of an electronic component, but have found nothing on the internet. Does anyone know what this component with the label " R22CC1" is? The half cylinder shaped part ist rotating.

Thanks a lot in advance.

Bests

That's what makes the vibrations when your phone is on vibrate. The tiny motor spins the offset weight, which shakes your phone.

It may be really hard to find a datasheet for this sort of thing. In mass consumer products, like phones, many parts are semicustom. What you can try to do is find a part that is functionally equivalent (size, mounting, voltage, etc.). If you search for vibrators, you won't get the links you want. "haptic" is a good search word to put in. Also "vibration motor".

Truer words were never spoken.

Damn it. I totally overlooked the obvious. In German, we use to say "den Wald vor lauter Bäumen nicht sehen", which means "you do not see the forrest because of the trees". Of course, the device vibrates. Thanks so much Dave!

We on the other side of the pond also have that saying.

But I think we only use one r in 'forrest'. ;)

That was my point. A forest is a grouping of trees. Forrest is a name.

What is the electronic component R22CC1?

The electronic component R22CC1 is not a standard component identifier used in electronics. It seems to be a fictitious or specific part number that may have been created for a particular application or product. Typically, electronic components are identified by more universally recognized codes or names such as resistors, capacitors, ICs, etc.

Why is the R22CC1 rotating?

If the R22CC1 is described as rotating, it could imply that it is part of a mechanical assembly or perhaps a motorized unit within an electronic device. However, without specific details about the nature of the component, it's challenging to provide a precise reason for its rotation. It could be part of a cooling system, a positioning device, or any number of mechanical functions.

Is the rotation of R22CC1 a common feature in electronic components?

Rotation is not a common feature in most electronic components, which are typically static and do not involve moving parts. Components that do rotate are usually specific to certain applications involving motors or mechanical interfaces. If R22CC1 is indeed rotating, it might be an exception or designed for a specialized purpose.

What applications might use a rotating component like R22CC1?

Rotating components are often used in applications requiring motion, such as in robotic arms, hard drives, fans, or motors. If R22CC1 is a rotating component, it could be used in any of these applications or similar devices where movement is essential. The exact application would depend on the specific characteristics and specifications of the component.

How can I determine the exact function and specifications of R22CC1?

To determine the exact function and specifications of R22CC1, you would typically refer to the datasheet provided by the manufacturer. If that's not available, consulting with the manufacturer directly or checking with the supplier from whom the component was purchased would be the next best steps. They can provide detailed information about the component's use, capabilities, and technical specifications.
