Large voice coil driver
Large voice coil driver
(OP)
Can anyone give me a quick overview of "Hysteresis Mode Switching", commonly used for driving large voice coils with an H-bridge?
I understand that switching frequency changes with error--is this the only difference between this and more conventional PWM control using an H-bridge?
How does a hysteresis mode switch device handle regeneration of energy stored in an inductive load? Does it 'slow' decay through FETs and/or FET body diodes, or does it shunt inductive energy back to the DC bus?
