Abstract: An attenuating circuit for reducing the inductively induced voltage transients in an electrical signal. The attenuating circuit is formed by a primary circuit and a smoothing circuit both coupled to a voltage source through an inductive conductor. The primary circuit operates in two states having a first and second current draw, respectively. The smoothing circuit also has a first and second state and a first and second current draw, respectively. The current draws of the primary circuit and the smoothing circuit are such that the total current draw on the voltage source through the inductive conductor maintains relatively constant regardless of the state that the primary circuit is in, thus minimizing any induced voltage transients as a result of the conductor's inductance.
