Any idea or suggestions on how to mange the PWM duty cycle fort Hold and Keep state and so the current in DRV110 using a "software" approach instead passive component
would like to substitute the Rpeak and Rhold with something that is controllable from uController GPIO
In components like DRV103 I see there is possibility to have voltage controlled duty cycle so use uControlled DAC to regulate PWM duty cycle
Any linear relationship between Peak and Hold voltage and duty cycle ?

Hello Davide,
Thank you for your post. I am assigning it to the engineer responsible for supporting this device. Please expect a response by 2/4/2020 or earlier.

Hi Davide,
Peak and Hold current can be software controlled, a DAC 0 to 1V will do the job.
I'll send you the schematic Monday, in the mean time can be more specific what's the target for PWM control?
That's not a direct linear dependency between PWM and Rpeak/Rhold. In an ideal word there are independent,
but noise and external components can force the duty cycle>100%,externally the frequency will look smaller than set PWM

Hi Davide,
For external Ipeak/hold current control the voltage DAC varies the Ipeak/hold pin current.
For full range control Vdac should be 0V to 1V and Rdac_peak/Rdac_hold=66.67kohm
The example plot external components are:
Rdac_peak=Rdac_hold=66.67kohm
Rs=1ohm
Rs valus will affect just Ipeak/Ihold
