A strip of electrically insulating foil (15) is subdivided into successive foil parts (23) separated by folding lines (21) and folded against each other along the folding lines. Each foil part has on one of its major surfaces a conductor track (25) which forms a curved meander-like line extending in a number of pole-forming curves (33) connected by connection members (31). The conductor tracks (25) on the foil parts (23) are connected together by connection tracks (27). The curves (33) cooperate...

This driver element for inductive loads, specifically DC motors, step motors, solenoids, and the like comprises a transistor bridge, each transistor of the bridge being parallel connected to a respective flyback diode ensuring recirculation of the current on switching the transistors off. The diodes are of the Schottky type, so as to ensure reduced switching loss and improved reliability of the element. The Schottky diodes are formed by leaving a non-diffused portion of the collector epitaxial l...

A method for the manufacture of an inductive chip of the type with a wire coiled around a core comprises the following steps: (a) Fixing the core to a connecting strip made of a metallic material, the strip being provided with slots by which electrical connections can be obtained on either side of the component, (b) Winding a wire around the fixed core, (c) Soldering each end of the wire to each part of the strip designed to form the electrical connections, (d) Coating the wound core, with the c...

A switched coil arrangement is connected in a bridge configuration of four switches S.sub.1, S.sub.2, S.sub.3 and S.sub.4 which are each shunted by diodes D.sub.1, D.sub.2, D.sub.3 and D.sub.4 so that current can flow in either direction through a coil L depending on the setting of the switches. A capacitor C is connected across the bridge through a switch S.sub.5 to receive the inductive energy stored in coil L on breaking the current flow path through the coil. The electrostatic energy stored ...
