A reduced hardware control circuit device includes a current loop for
broad band Hard Disk Drive applications. The current loop detects the
value of the current flowing on the coils of a voice coil electric motor
incorporated in the Hard Disk Drive. A sensing resistance is connected in
series with the motor and at least a driving driver for a relative motor
coil. Advantageously the current loop is a transconductance loop with a
first transconductance amplifier associated with the sensing resistance.
A second transconductance amplifier is provided for fixing the current
value to be applied to the motor. The circuit device advantageously is
deprived of a local compensation in correspondence with the first
transconductance amplifier.
