Abstract:
An apparatus is provided to control a position of a camera module. The apparatus includes a magnetic member disposed on a lens barrel of the camera module, a coil disposed opposite to the magnetic member, and a driver configured to generate to the coil a position confirmation signal including a specific frequency component. The apparatus also includes a signal extractor configured to extract a detected signal, including the specific frequency component, from a coil signal of the coil, and a peak detector detect a peak value of the detected signal and output a position signal corresponding to a position of the magnetic member based on the peak value.
