DRV8876-Q1: Could drv8876-q1 regulate the speed of motor?

Part Number: DRV8876-Q1
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: DRV8876

Hi Expert,

Could drv8876-q1 regulate the speed of motor? Our device is used to drive an electric fan to cool CPU.

Thanks

  • Hi Wilson,

    Yes, DRV8876 can regulate speed. The speed of a brushed DC motor is proportional to the input voltage (VM).  We suggest using DRV8876 in either PWM or PH/EN control mode. By adjusting the duty cycle, the output voltage will change accordingly.
