Summary:An apparatus for switching an inductive load includes a MOSFET switch and provides for limiting a voltage across the load during switching-off of the latter. One or two clamping circuits are used without zener diodes and with different, temperature-independent clamping voltages for the purpose of rapid demagnetization of the load in a constant demagnetization time.
