Abstract
A method and circuit arrangement is provided for controlling switching transistors of an integrated circuit, with a bridge circuit and with a control unit, which is designed and/or has a program so that the control unit is designed as a measuring device and measures a bridge voltage of the bridge circuit, outputs an adjusting signal for adjusting a component of a bridge circuit, and outputs a control signal for activating the switching transistors. When the bridge circuit) has a branch with a resistor network and a transistor connected in series, and the control unit is designed and/or has a program so that the adjusting signal for adjusting a resistance value of the resistor network is switchable as the component dependent on the bridge voltage.
