Zusammenfassung:A circuit arrangement for generating a current for an inductive load is provided. The circuit includes a switched output state, a modulator, a current measuring device, a controller, a compensator, and a summer The switched output stage is configured to generate the current from a supply voltage. The modulator is configured to modulate the supply voltage of the output stage depending on a modulator input signal of the modulator. The current measuring device is configured to determine the actual value of the current. The controller is configured to generate a controller signal depending on a setpoint value of the current and the actual value of the current. The compensator is configured to generate from the setpoint value of the current at least one compensation control signal that compensates for nonlinearities of the output stage. The summer is configured to generate the modulator input signal additively from the controller signal and the at least one compensation control signal.
