ABSTRACT:
A driver circuit for controllably connecting an inductive load to a source of electrical power in response to an input control signal is provided. The inductive load includes an inductive winding of a solenoid. The driver circuit controllably connects and disconnects the inductive load to and from the source in response to a first control signal and controllably provides a discharge path for a flyback current of the inductive load in response to a second control signal. The driver circuit senses both the energizing current and the flyback current and responsively provides an energization path and a flyback discharge path in a non-overlapping manner.
