So in the off period the A high side FET is in an on state and both B side FETS are off. So does this mean the inductive spike is clamped to the battery voltage or just above with the Fet resistance?

If I look at hbridge.c the way I intrepret the software switches is shown in the attached doc. When they say the minus side = LO then I thought the gates on the lo side were either on or off and the hi side minus gate was off. I could have these reversed. Look at this straw man and we will get full agreement on the configuration. I have only depicted the voltage input>0 drive state.
Update: the zip expands this to Chris config, Gdeaver config and an Al? config
