Abstract: A method of PWM regulating a motor through a half-bridge drive stage includes sampling the motor current to obtain sampled values during driving intervals or during current decay intervals, and comparing a last sampled value with a current threshold. The motor is coupled in a slow decay electrical path for the duration of a current decay interval if the last sampled value does not exceed the current threshold. Otherwise the motor is coupled in a fast decay electrical path for a portion of the duration of the current decay interval, and is coupled in the slow decay electrical path for a remaining part of the duration of the same current decay interval.

Abstract: A control circuit of a voice coil motor is configured to move at least one read/write head of an hard disk into a parking position. The control circuit compares a received supply signal with a reference signal having a minimum value and a maximum value and a frequency. When the value of the supply signal is between the minimum value and the maximum value of the reference signal, the controller causes alternation of a working condition of the voice coil motor, when the value of said supply signal is higher than the value of the reference signal, and of a stop condition of the voice coil motor, when the value of said supply signal is lower than the value of the reference signal, with a frequency equal to the frequency of said reference signal.
