DRV8305: Some problem while driving BLDC motor using DRV8305 and MSP430G2553.
Part Number: DRV8305Hello sir,I have used DRV8305 and an MSP430G2553 controller to drive BLDC. It runs almost perfectly but at some point of time BLDC motor internally make a sound for a second and...

Hi Robert, I'm glad you were able to remove the fault. For the new issue of not being able to toggle the GHC, a have a couple questions: 1.) Does replacing R1008 solve this issue? Are you sure the...

Hi Suraj, With no MOSFETs connected, the device will go into "Current Limit Mode" when the gate signals are enabled because the VDS differential is greater than the VDS threshold set with the OC_ADJ...

Hi Suraj, The inductor must be connected to the buck in order for it to operate correctly. I would recommend disconnecting all external loads from the VCC buck output and checking the following...

Hello all,I am a design engineer and just starting a new project. I have done some research and it seems that what I am trying to do is quite possible, but probably not the most common. I am working on...
View ArticleRE: How can I terminate floating voltage of PVDD port?
Hi Nam, Sang-il, Sorry for the delay. We were not to duplicate your findings. When GVDD and VDD = 12V, the outputs were measured to be 560mV. PVDD was measured to be 330mV. PVDD is following the OUT_x...

TI,Do you have an update as to why the DRV8303 (and DRV8301) have this undesired behavior of shoot-though, caused by a narrow pulse out of the low-side gate drive output?

Hi Steve, I apologize for the delay in response and appreciate your patience. 1.) Have you tried increasing the DTC resistor value in your design? I saw that you said you've tried increasing deadtime,...

Phil,1) The DTC resistor (pin 3) is the value that I increased. As it was increased, the flow through spike moved with the increased time.2) I tried pull down resistors down to 250 ohms, with no...
