How to pick up a electromagnetic coil control board?

Question

Hi everyone, 
 Recently I was trying to control a electromagnetic coil. The inductance will be 50 uH and I are attempting to pass large amount of current (1 ~ 3 A) into the coil under a constant DC power source (12~36 V). 
 To switch between powering and de-powering Inductive Loads at a high frequency (> 1k Hz), and considering all the safety requirement, I am trying to use a well build drive circuit. I came to read about this product: MAX14912/MAX14913 (link at end) and I am not sure if this will meet my task. Can anyone give some suggestions of driving and controlling the inductive load based on my need? 
 Appreciate for all the read and suggestions, 
 Nianyu Jiang

Okay, you are going to control the magnetic field by controlling time of the current flow (PWM) through the coil. In this case, the MAX14900E fits better for your purposes. You are going to use parallel mode to control the output(s) through the IN_ pins. You will be using the MAX14900E under short circuit conditions, but it is okay since this is an engineering project. The MAX14900E EVKIT (MAX14900DEVBRD) is available on the DigiKey website https://www.digikey.com/en/products/detail/analog-devices-inc-maxim-integrated/MAX14900DEVBRD/5880608 and it does not need any modifications. In high-side mode, multiple outputs can be connected together in parallel to achieve higher load currents.
