DRV8711: Is there a default setting for Torque register of DRV8711

Part Number: DRV8711

Hi,

I am testing the power consumption of a step motor driver circuit with DRV8711. by accident we set the torque value to 0 in Torque register. supremely, the motor is spinning and the current of driver circuit is quite high. it is higher than the setting with torque value 20-40. so my question is, what is current setting in the case the torque value is 0? 

Thanks,

Jeff

  • Hi Jeff,

    What are the other settings in the DRV8711?
    How high is the current when the Torque register is 0?
    How high is the current when the Torque register is 20 - 40?
    Where is the current measured (through the coils or at the power supply)?
    Is the motor running when measuring the current?
