DRV8312-C2-KIT: Current draw from DRV8312 EVM board

Part Number: DRV8312-C2-KIT


Hi,

I am currently trying to monitor the power levels via a sensor.

The sensor can handle a maximum of 8A. I checked the hardware reference guide, however I was confused by the wording.

On page 4 It says 6.5 A peak current and then 3.5A max continuous current per phase. Does this mean the board will only draw a maximum of 6.5 A? OR should I expect 3.5 A per phase x 3 = 10.5 A max current draw?

I have also included a screenshot of the page.
