Large current sense on drv8332
Hello,Im using DRV8332 the datasheet have schematic and written on it max Voltage on current sense is 100mv , but i need to add bigger current sense resistor to get more voltage to my poor adc...

Hi Ahmed, We still need to following the rules of 100mV of current sense. So you can using external Opamp to scale the voltage. The following hardware can be a good example of doing this....

Hi OliverWe recommanded use the same voltage source for PVDD and motor bus. There is Vds sense function need the voltages the same. Also there is MIN requirement for the bus as well as PVDD.Best regards,

Hi,I am using the DRV8301-69m-kit. We want to test drives with DC link voltages as small as 2 V. For this reason, we modified the board by supplying the PVDD1-3 by an external voltage source of 16 V.We...

Thank you for answers! 1. I did. It worked again, but with a problem. I used 6.8 kΩ instead of 3.3kΩ resistor and finally got it moving again. Why was taht a problem? The first PCB I made was working...

Hi Kevin, Thanks for the additional information. When the driver begins switching the TEC it will require a large amount of instantaneous current. Any stray inductance between the power supply and...

Dear Wilson, is it possible to disable the Vds sense function? Or would any other hardware modification allow motor bus voltages which are below the PVDD source voltage? If not, can you recommend...

Hi Phil,Thank you for your valuable information. I have already put a 470uF Bulk capacitance, it helps smooth the circuit. Now I find out if I increase the VREF value from 3.3V to 7V, the output...

Sorry forgot to add waveform. See attached.I should also add that I've confirmed the SPI write into Bits [11:0] are working all properly in ALL other registers except register 1.

Hi,,,i am a new user. As per my experience i am agree with this thing that the OCP on the device has a tblank time associated with it that the driver will ignore the current sense resister voltage....

Hi Ernest, We have not seen this behavior before. I will test on our side and get back to you. A couple questions for my debug: 1.) What is the state of SLEEPn during this testing? 2.) What is the VM...

Thank you for your information! That makes a lot of sense for the differences between TEC module and Motor.

Also, just to confirm, are you able to see changes in bits 8 and 9 between read and write functions? If the device is reset does this register come up as the proper default value?

1) Whether SLEEPn=0 or SLEEPn=1 makes no difference, I tested both. 2) Vm=24 V. In regards to the general "is stuff working...", yes it is. This design is fairly far along. We have been running motors...

Great! This should be put in some sort of errata or documentation. I tried scanning the E2E forums but guess I missed that post. Thanks so much huge time saver.
