Hi,
One of our customers facing an issue with BOOST-DRV8711 on the board.
I am reaching out regarding a technical issue I'm facing with the DRV8711 booster board in our instruction.
As per the provided instructions, I have successfully configured the MSP430 to transmit step pulses to the DRV8711. However, I have encountered a problem with the DRV8711's transmission of FET pulses. Despite following the instruction specified for communication between the devices, the DRV8711 does not appear to be sending the expected FET pulses.
To rectify this issue, I kindly request your assistance in troubleshooting and resolving the communication problem between the MSP430 and the DRV8711. Any guidance or alternative steps you can provide would be greatly appreciated. Please find the attached video for more clarification.

Thanks & Regards,
