DRV8718-Q1: connection solution of DRVOFF pin and BRAKE pin if not use

Hi,

1)BRAKE pin should be connected to GND. Please refer datasheet page 52.

2) Can be left OPEN, but strongly recommend to have test point at least or external pull up resister's foot print. If MCU can read nFAULT signal through GPIO, it is better.

nFLT(nFault) function will be used for debug purpose and most important signal for debug. Better to keep flexibility to use nFAULT faction on PCB.
