DRV8705S-Q1EVM: Consultation on DRV8705S

Part Number: DRV8705S-Q1EVM

Tool/software:

Hi teams,

Regarding the bridge drive control of DRV8705S, there are two methods: SPI and hard wire;
If only SPI control is used, are there any special connection requirements for the four hard wired interfaces IN * and nHIZ *? (up, down, or suspended)

  • Hi Vayne,

    If only SPI control is used, are there any special connection requirements for the four hard wired interfaces IN * and nHIZ *? (up, down, or suspended)

    All these four pins have internal pulldown. It wouldn't hurt to tie them to GND or they can be left open if not used for control.

    The S_HIZ1 and S_HIZ2 bits are logical OR with the corresponding nHIZx pins. So those pins must be in logic LOW (open or GND) while using SPI control.
