ABSTRACT:
A method and apparatus for solenoid driver control of high speed solenoid actuators which includes supplying a high regulated level of acceleration current to operate the actuator, monitoring and controlling the current requirements of solenoid actuation, automatically reducing the solenoid current at a rapid rate to a lesser level of regulated solenoid hold current for the remaining duration of actuator operation, and rapidly reducing the solenoid current between acceleration and holding levels and for rapid solenoid release. Current is controlled at the different levels using switch mode power control techniques for power efficiency.
