A ferrite load driver system in accordance with the invention includes a clock generator configured to generate a digital clock signal. The system further includes a digital pulse generator configured to generate an enable pulse having a pulse width equal to a certain number of clock cycles of the digital clock signal. The enable pulse is received by a driver element of the system. The driver element responds by driving a current in a first direction through the ferrite load for setting a first magnetic flux.
