Abstract:
An injector driver module includes: a first node that is connected to a first terminal of a fuel injector; a first switch configured to, when closed, connect a first potential of a battery to the first node; a second switch configured to, when closed, connect a second potential that is greater than the first potential to the first node; a second node that is connected to a second terminal of the fuel injector; and a third switch configured to, when closed, connect a ground potential to the second node. A switch control module is configured to, starting at a target injecting timing for a fuel injection event of the fuel injector: maintain the third switch closed; and switch the second switch using a pulse width modulated (PWM) signal having (i) a duty cycle that is less than 100 percent and (ii) a predetermined frequency.

Claim (Index 19):
The fuel injector control system of  claim 18  wherein the switch control module is configured to, in response to the determination that the current through the fuel injector is less than the fourth predetermined current:\n close the third switch and close the first switch until the current through the fuel injector is greater than or equal to a fifth predetermined current that is less than the second predetermined current and greater than the fourth predetermined current.
