Abstract:
A drive circuit and a method are disclosed. The drive circuit includes output nodes configured to be coupled to a load, a capacitor coupled between the output nodes, and a power converter. The power converter is configured to store an initialization value in a memory in at least one of a plurality of on-phases of the drive circuit and to control an initialization phase of at least one other of the plurality of on-phases based on the initialization value stored in the memory. The initialization value is dependent on an output voltage across the capacitor during a load drive phase of the at least one on-phase, and the power converter is further configured to regulate an output current during the load drive phase.

Claim (Index 1):
