DRV8243-Q1: The relationship between the tpd and slew rate

Part Number: DRV8243-Q1

Tool/software:

Hi Experts:

I have some questions about the SlewRate setting and the corresponding propagation delay (tpd).

From the description in the datasheet,  the tpd is the time between the failling/rising edge of the input and the start point of the output switching, it seems that the tpd is no relative to the slew rate.

However, in terms of the spec like below : the tpd_LSoff is changable with the SR_LSOFF, and the tpd_LSon, tpd_HSoff ,tpd_HSon are also changeable.  

So i would like to know the relationship between the tpd and the slew rate since it is helpful for me to caculate the system's spec. 

  

  • Hi 

    Thank you for your questions. SR settings changes the driving capability of FET rise/fall. To achieve faster slew rate (e.g 47V/us), it needs higher driving capability. Then tPD is slightly impacted-getting shorter with high driving capability settings.

    Thanks for your quick reponse, so the spec is the test result of the bench, if i used the actual motor , the data will be changed . Am i right ?

    But the rule is that the tpd is proportional to the slew rate , the faster slew rate the shorted tpd,
