Hello,
I'm using the DRV8823 to control brushed DC motors and solenoids (inductive loads). Does the DRV8823 require clamping (flyback) diodes to protect itself when the load is turned off? I have seen other TI motor/solenoid drives specifically stating a clamping transient diode is built in, but I don't see any reference to this in the DRV8823. I have the demo board DRV8823EVM that I have connected to the motors without any problems and it doesn't appear the schematic for the DRV8823EVM has clamping (flyback) diodes.
Thanks,
Cody
