This Design Idea is able to turn off inductive loads at a very fast rate. When connected to a load (here 15mH + 10?), the modified freewheeling path in the clamping circuit based around M2 reduces the ...

For most industrial applications, engineers need a high-side switch to control inductive loads. The challenge is how to discharge the energy in the inductor when the switch opens and current flow ...

When choosing a switch to use in an electrical design project, there is a perception that it is possible to use any switch, provided its current rating is greater than the maximum load in the circuit.
