DRV8718-Q1: Used as high side switch and low side switch

Fabio Gou

Part Number: DRV8718-Q1

Tool/software:

The customer want to use part of the channels as high side switch or low side switch.

Whether we have some guidance for the hardware circuit design and the software diagnostics description like(Open Load Detection)?

For hardware design see this:

And here's a file for offline open load and short circuit detection:

Best,

Jacob
