Tool/software:
Is it possible to use DRV8872-Q1 to drive two independent PWM output signals?

Hi Jessica,
For this device you can't control them independently:
Can you let me know the load profile as well as the operating voltage and I can suggest a new part.

Thank you for the quick reply.
I am actually using them as general purpose PWM outputs:
- Operating voltage: 7V to 35V
- Output current < 10mA
- Frequency up to 100kHz
- 0% to 100% duty cycle
- Dual channel (independent) preferred for space considerations
- Automotive + functional safety
It looks like the DRV8876-Q1 might be a good option since it looks like it is possible to run the two bridges independently. Is there another part you would recommend?
Hi Jessica,
DRV8876-Q1 is an option like you said:
100 kHz is relatively high switching frequency, so there aren't that many options left that are also HW and integrated. Is this a hard requirement?
What application is this for?

It's a general purpose output which may be used in a range of applications. If there are lower cost / simpler options we could rethink that requirement.
Hi Jessica,
I have asked the marketing team for some input. I will update you Monday.
Best,
