DRV8876: Difference between DRV8876 and DRV8876N

Part Number: DRV8876

Hi all

I have a question about DRV8876 and DRV8876.

What is the difference between DRV8876 and DRV8876N?

I understand that the DRV8876 has an IPROPI pin.
Also, The DRV8876 has Current Sensing.
Are there any other differences?

Best Regards,
Ishiwata

  • Ishiwata, If you compare the data sheet first page, DRV8876 support: “ Integrated current sensing allows for the driver to regulate the motor current during start up and high load events. A current limit can be set with an adjustable external voltage reference. Additionally, the devices provide an output current proportional to the motor load current. This can be used to detect motor stall or change in load conditions. The integrated current sensing uses an internal current mirror architecture, removing the need for a large power shunt resistor, saving board area and reducing system cost.“ Also, when you compare pin configuration section, you can find pin 5 VREF and pin 6 IPROPI difference.

    Thank you for your support.

    I understand.
