Abstract

A circuit arrangement for controlling an electrical load is provided with a bridge circuit which comprises four electronic switches with the load arranged in a transverse leg of the bridge circuit. A control circuit has respective control terminals for the four electronic switches. The control terminal for the first electronic switch is connected to the control terminal for the fourth electronic switch by means of a series connection consisting of a first capacitor and a first resistance, and the control terminal for the third electronic switch is connected to the control terminal for the second electronic switch by means of a series connection consisting of a second capacitor and a second resistance.
