Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2011038969A2] The invention relates to a free-wheeling circuit for the rapid reduction of a shutdown overvoltage of an inductive load (1) when the latter is shut down. The free-wheeling circuit comprises a switching threshold component (11) by which the free-wheeling circuit becomes active more rapidly compared to a free-wheeling circuit without said switching threshold component (11), thereby ensuring a more rapid reduction of the shutdown overvoltage. If a control voltage provided by a control voltage source (2) falls below a threshold voltage set by the switching threshold component (11), a capacitive energy accumulator is immediately discharged and not only when the control voltage is reduced to near zero, and said energy accumulator then activates the free-wheeling circuit for reducing the shutdown overvoltage, when in the nearly discharged state.
