DRV8843: datasheet has differnet pinout and layout diagrams!

Part Number: DRV8843
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: DRV8841

Hello,

I was looking at DRV8843 datasheet (http://www.ti.com/lit/ds/symlink/drv8843.pdf) and I had some confusion. Two diagrams in the datasheet do not match and I was wondering if I am missing something.

The pinout diagram,

The layout diagram,

  Is there a reason why these two pinouts are different? Which one is the correct one?

  • Nima,

    Thank you for catching this. The diagram in "Pin configuration and Functions" is correct.
    Please use DRV8841 datasheet Figure 11 "Layout Recommendation" as reference for now. We will update the datasheet to correct error.
