I'm guessing the "feedback" John Sohl was talking about is unintentional
feedback as opposed to designed feedback. If that is not true, ignore
the rest of this message.
If you try to square-pulse a coil
with a logic circuit, the inductance
can create voltage spikes that can fry or confuse the logic. You can
get the "tail wagging the dog." Another example of this is running a
stepper-motor with logic pulses. You need some components to shunt
induced emfs so they don't get back into the logic circuit.
Connect the two ends of the coil together with a varistor or with
back-to-back zener diodes.
