Brushed Motor driver 400W, 12V, 100% Mode for Automotive Application

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: TL2843B-Q1

Hello together,

recently I had a meeting, where the customer requires a motor driver with following specifications:

Input: 12V car battery

Output: 0-12V PWM, drives one external MOSFET.

Switching Frequency approx. 20kHz

Input Signal: Analogue voltage

Unidirectional only, overcurrent protection with foldback, short circuit protection and reverse polarity protection

Therefore, the only device I found was the TL2843B-Q1, but the limitation here is the 100% duty cycle, as the MIN spec is stated as 96%. Do you have an idea how we can support the customer with an appropriate solution? In addition, cost should be very low and using a microcontroller is not desired.

Maybe we have a reference design which fits in here? Thank you for your help and kind regards,

Felix
