Driving method

Abstract

A method for driving a movable component of a hardware device includes the steps of: (1) driving the movable component to move the driving distance by the former force to determine a base time; (2) setting a reference time, wherein the reference time is smaller than the base time; (3) determining a former period according to the reference time, and determining the former distance and the latter distance according to the former time, the former force and the base time; and (4) determining a latter period according to the latter force and the latter distance, wherein the movable component is driven by the former force for the former period and then is driven by the latter force for the latter period. Another method for driving a movable component of a hardware device includes the steps of: (1) calculating an advancing time, which is required for the movable component to move the driving distance; (2) adjusting at least the former period or the latter period according to the advancing time so that a sum of the former period and the latter period is substantially equal to the advancing time; and (3) driving the movable component by the former force for the former period and driving the movable component by the latter force for the latter period.
