DRV110: what is the DRV1100 keep time tolerance

Part Number: DRV110

Tool/software:

hi team,

 I met  a problem,  the  Tkeep  is different  in  two samples,  the Ckeep is the same(I measured  with LCR) but  the solenoid  peak current keep time  is different; I exchange  the DRV110 chip  from one sample to annother, the keep time   follows  the chip; I want to know  how much  is the  Tkeep  tolerance  between  differnce DRV110?  thanks!

 sample 1:

  • Hi,

    Thank you for your questions. Our expert will feedback to you within a day or two

  • Hello,

    Are you evaluating on a DRV110EVM and swapping out the DRV110 between tests or testing from 2 separate boards?

  • hi,  I swapping DRV110  btween  our own designed  boards, I do not have  a DRV110 EVM

  • Hello,

    I don't believe there is much variation between the devices. We don't have that exact data on this device.

    How many units have you seen this variation with?

    Is this time variation causing some issues with the application?

  • hi   I test about 7 boards, four  boads   are 189ms      three  boards  are  170ms   174ms    172ms;

    yes ,in our application, we need a accurate time  to  open the  solenoid 

  • Hello,

    I have reached out to some other team members to see if we can get a spec on keep time.  

    Is this a new project?  Would you consider a Half-bridge device like DRV8952 - it has integrated current regulation so you can set your desired current regulation level for peak and hold capability, and by controlling IN1 and the current regulation with your MCU directly you will have very tight timing control.  Another option would be DRV8143-Q1 for a single channel device. This route will likely be cheaper than DRV110.

  • hi

     it is a old project, I think it hardly  replace DRV110 with other chip;

  • Hello, 

    We've just heard back from our design team and they've confirmed that we don't have this data. This is due to the device being one of our older products in our portfolio. 

    From what we have seen across our products, there is more than likely an estimated 20% of variance between devices. This doesn't mean that each device will have a 20% variance, but across the total distribution of devices any are possible to fall within 20% of typical spec.

    Best,
