Claim 18:
19. An input assembly, comprising:
a carrier,
an input part, which is mounted on the carrier in a manner capable of vibrating along at least one direction of movement by means of mounting means, the input part having an input surface intended to be touched by an operator and with a touch-detection device for detecting a touch upon the input surface by the operator, and
an electromagnetic actuator for exciting a movement of the input part along the direction of movement by means of an electric control signal in order to generate a haptic feedback for the operator in the case of a touch by the operator, wherein the actuator has an additional mass that is resiliently mounted using a resilient mount and the actuator is attached to the input part via a vibration isolator;
wherein at least one of the control signal and a damping caused by the vibration isolator is such that a decay instant at which a maximum amplitude of a system response has decayed to 10% or less of the absolute maximum amplitude follows a previously reached absolute maximum amplitude after a second interval in time of maximally 30 ms.
