Abstract
Circuitry for an induction element for an aerosol generating device. The induction element is for inductive heating of a susceptor for heating an aerosol generating material in use. The circuitry includes a driver arrangement arranged to provide, from an input direct current, an alternating current for driving the induction element in use. The driver arrangement includes a plurality of transistors arranged in a H-bridge configuration. The H-bridge configuration includes a high side pair of transistors and a low side pair of transistors, the high side pair being for connection to a first electric potential higher than a second electric potential to which the low side pair is for connection is use. At least one of the high side pair of transistors is a p-channel field effect transistor.
