DRV8825 understanding and Thermal Issue
Hi I am using DRV8825 Driver IC , I have few questions listed below :1. I am working on various frequency but stepper motor supports only certain frequency at which the motor rotates. Can you please...
View ArticleRE: DRV8842 goes too fast in nFAULT conditions after start the Motors movements
Hi Michele, The best method to avoid the nFAULT is to understand the cause. From your description, it could be overtemperature conditions. How long does nFAULT assert? Do you have a good thermal...

Hi, Thanks for the information. The oscilloscope plot shows FAULT going low for 5 ms, which is the fixed delay for an OCP event. An OCP event can be triggered either by the voltage being above the...

Hi Otto, There is nothing wrong tying the IN and EN together. The design team says this should work.

I am using the DRV8844 to drive a high frequency (ultrasonic) shaker. I need fast decay because, driving a coil, this chip will be switched at close to it's data sheet limit. Section 7.3.3 Table 2...
