DRV10975 included Step-down regulator

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: DRV10975

Hi there,


if I don't use the included step-down regulator of the DRV10975 driver, should I let the leave the pins VREG, SW and SWGND floating?  Or which minimum wiring would you recommend?

Thanks for your help,
Johannes

  • Hi Johannes,

    Regulator is use to power internally circuitry as well, so step down regulator needs to be configured in Linear/Buck regulator mode.  Since resistive energy is lost in linear regulator; Buck regulator is  more efficient compared to Linear Regulator.
