DRV8811EVM

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: DRV8811

Can the processor on the board be tristated or disconnected so that the DRV881 can be connected to other controls(step, init, dir, etc.) from outside the board?

 

  • Hi Ray,

    Unfortunately, with the firmware as it is, this is not possible. If you have access to a MSP430 FET programmer, I can send you a firmware version with this feature. If so, please feel free to write directly to me at jquinones@ti.com. Other options are:

    1. Removing the MSP430 microcontroller with a heat gun.

    2. There are some open source simple boards which only contain the DRV8811 and passive components along with a header to connect your own microcontroller.

    Best regards,

    Jose Quinones
