According to one embodiment, a low frequency drive control circuit for use with an inductive load comprises a comparator configured to receive a high frequency signal at a first input and a smoothly varying low frequency signal for modulating the high frequency signal at a second input. The comparator is further configured to produce a pulse width modulated output of the low frequency drive control circuit for use in generating a smoothly varying low frequency load current in the inductive load. In one embodiment, the inductive load can comprise a DC brushed motor. In one embodiment, the low frequency drive control circuit can be implemented as part of an integrated circuit further comprising a switching circuit configured to use the pulse width modulated output of the comparator to generate the smoothly varying low frequency load current, which may be a substantially sinusoidal load current, for example.
