Hi Raju,Is the Keysight scope using a math function and the Agilent using no math? This would explain the negative voltage. It does not explain the difference in current.Can you use the same scope...

Thank you Phil, In the next revision of the datasheet I think it would be useful to include this graph. The real speed is within SPEEDTH before the graphic shown with FGOUT signal. Is a resolution...

Hey Kursad, Appreciate the indepth information, this is helpful in debug. It looks like the linearity of the speed curve in your application improves with a higher IDRIVE setting. Have you tried using...

Hi Javier, The LOOPGAIN is the proportional gain at all frequency range that is applied in the INTEGRAL interval. It is not applied with SPEED gain in the PROPORTIONAL interval. You are correct that...

Hi Christopher,The equation shown on page 46 is assuming that all 6 MOSFETs could be switching, like in an application using Field Oriented Control to spin a BLDC. This would be the worst-case stress...

Hi Paul, The DRV777 is a good choice for your application. The outputs can be paralleled, though you will need a second DRV777 to parallel 2 outputs each. If you are only driving one stepper motor with...

Part Number: DRV777Hi,I need to run the 28 BYJ-48 stepper motor in unipolar mode with a supply voltage of 5V. This stepper is usually driven with ULN2003. However, the ULN2003 may not be the most...

Hi Phil, I see, I was planning on starting with 6-step trapezoidal control, but I would like the option to move to FOC to spin the BLDC. I noticed on the DRV832X datasheet that the Ivcp is dependent on...

Part Number: DRV8305Hi,I was wondering what limits the RMS Drive current of the gate driver to 30mA? The datasheet mentions that the charge pump limits this, but is it a thermal issue on the charge...

Hi Jared, There is not a DRV8871-Q1 EVM available. You have two choices: 1) Use the DRV8871 EVM as is. The device is a very good indicator of the function of the DRV8871-Q1. 2) Acquire a DRV8871 EVM...

Hi Rick, Is the only difference between the DRV8871 and DRV8871-Q1 the thermal limits of the device? Or are there other things I need to be aware of that change between the two? Thank you, Jared

Hey Rasa,To supply an external PWM signal, you'll need to isolate the MSP430F5529 pin from the EVM. IF you do not do this you run the risk of damaging the MSP430 by back-driving this pin while it's...
