Abstract
A motor control circuit for providing high acceleration currents by providing a driver comprising a transistor operating in the saturated region in parallel with a transistor operated in the nonsaturated region. The saturated transistor supplies the heavy accelerating current while the nonsaturated transistor is controlled to provide an increasing current through the accelerating period to make up for drops in the current flows through the saturated transistor due to build up of back emf in the motor.
