Hi Phil,
Thank you very much for your reply, I'm using Arduino mega 2560 as a microcontroller and using VCC pins on the board to provide VCC across peripherals of DRV8301. When inductor is connected its drawing a lot of current (just like short circuit) and Arduino board shuts down until I remove inductor from the circuitry. That is why I have removed inductor and capacitor and also I have to pull EN_BUCK low so that IC does not heat up too much.
What are the disadvantages of having BUCK disabled and inductor removed? And why does IC heats up when BUCK is enabled?
Thank you for your time again!!
