Abstract
A circuit configuration for limiting the cutoff voltage occurring in controlling a servomotor (M) by means of width-modulated DC pulses comprises a power transistor (T2) which, via a capacitor (C) is connected through for a short time when a cutoff voltage appears thus limiting the cutoff voltage. Subsequently the transistor (T2) presents a high impedance. As a result a short-circuiting of the servomotor (M) will be prevented in the phase in which a spring force resets the servomotor into its zero position.
