1. A method for driving a load, comprising the steps of:
- during a first phase of a three-phase driving process, driving a control device and a first switching device disposed parallel to the control device being controlled as a function of a current flowing through the load;
performing a second phase of the three-phase driving process; and
during a third phase of the three-phase driving process, driving the control device and a second switching device disposed parallel to the control device.

Abstract
A method and a device for driving a load, particularly an electromagnetic load. The current flowing through the load is detected, and is controlled by a control device connected in series to the load. During a first phase, in addition to the control device, a first switching device is driven that is disposed parallel to the control device. During a third phase, in addition to the control device, a second switching device is driven that is disposed parallel to the control device.
