DRV8714-Q1: How DRVOFF turns off the MOSFET

Part Number: DRV8714-Q1

Tool/software:

Hi team,

If customer sets DRVOFF to 1. How will the MOSFETs be turned off? With IDRVN or passive pulldown? Thanks!

Best Regards

Grey

  • Hi team,

    Add some background and further questions updated from customer:

    1. If customer turns off MOSFET by set EN_DRV to 0. How will the MOSFETs be turned off? With IDRVN or passive pulldown?
    2. If MOSFET is turned off by passive pulldown, customer is concerned that the turn-off is too slow and causes MOSFET to be damaged when load current is large because of heat.

    Best Regards

  • Hi Grey,

    Thank you for your questions. 

    1. It is I_STRONG pull down 

    2.This question is NA, since 1) is I_STRONG.
