APPLICATION INFORMATION
When inductive loads are driven by L6220/N, a
zener diode in series with the integral free-wheeling
diodes increases the voltage across which energy
stored in the load is discharged and therefore
speeds the current decay (Fig. 16). For reliability it
is suggested that the zener is chosen so that V
