Abstract
A circuit comprises an H-bridge circuit that includes a pair of current sources and a plurality of transistors. The H-bridge circuit includes a first output and a second output. One of the current sources is coupled to receive a supply voltage. A control circuit is configured to control, based on a sum of voltages on the first and second outputs, current of at least one of the current sources through at least some of the plurality of transistors.
