A control circuit providing a driving current to a voice coil motor to position a reading and writing head of a disk memory system is described. The circuit comprises a first and a second class AB amplifiers the outputs of which are connected to the terminals of a first resistor in series with the voice coil motor so that a current passes through the voice coil motor and through the first resistor. The circuit comprises a sense amplifier the input terminals of which are coupled with the terminals of said first resistor, a device at the input of which is present a signal which is a sum of an external signal and of an output signal of the sense amplifier. The first amplifier and the second amplifier being driven in inverted phase by an output signal produced by the device. The circuit comprises means for inserting a second resistor in series with the first resistor so that said current passes through the series of said first and said second resistors and so that said sense amplifier has the input terminals coupled with the terminals of said series of resistors.
