We are getting issues building the proj_lab02b project in CCS with the error error #20: identifier &amp;quot;angle_gen&amp;quot; is undefined. However, we cannot seem to find the proj_lab02 base project or where we could get this module from. We already tried re-instaling the MotorWare software and added the specific packages for the 8323RS board.

I recalculated both the MOSFET gate resistance and the current-limiting resistor, and they appear to be correct. I also tried reducing their values to see if there would be any change, but the behavior remains similar. Here is what we know so far: With the previous relay, the DRV110 works as expected. With the relay that has higher inductance, the regulation does not behave as intended. The only difference between the setups is the relay itself. However, there is another interesting observation: I have several relay drivers on the same board, and they do not all behave in the same way. Here is the Vout from two different relay drivers: Both channels show a duty cycle of 100% for several cycles, followed by a few cycles at the minimum duty cycle. Interestingly, one of the relay drivers allows the coil current to drop more than the other. What do you think could be causing this difference? It might be related to a very slow current variation. Could you provide the regulator’s hysteresis values? Additionally, it could be related to noise on the SENSE pin. I tried adding a filter (1 kΩ + 100 pF), but there was no noticeable change. Best regards, Enrique</description></item><item><title>Forum Post: RE: DRV8844: Repowering of VM when not supplied</title><link>https://e2e.ti.com/support/motor-drivers-group/motor-drivers/f/motor-drivers-forum/1643393/drv8844-repowering-of-vm-when-not-supplied/6336534</link><pubDate>Thu, 07 May 2026 14:54:00 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">cb01d8b2-d089-468d-babb-77d1d8683490:2fd9dc32-48a9-4eac-a987-d3a101dd0b96</guid><dc:creator>Mojtaba Afshar</dc:creator><description>Thank you for the update. regards Mojtaba</description></item><item><title>Forum Post: RE: DRV8844: Repowering of VM when not supplied</title><link>https://e2e.ti.com/support/motor-drivers-group/motor-drivers/f/motor-drivers-forum/1643393/drv8844-repowering-of-vm-when-not-supplied/6336389</link><pubDate>Thu, 07 May 2026 13:22:00 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">cb01d8b2-d089-468d-babb-77d1d8683490:cdc327d4-9b67-464a-983b-fe6889fb9d9f</guid><dc:creator>Cl&amp;#233;ment Letonnelier</dc:creator><description>Please forget about this issue is coming from another stage of the design.</description></item><item><title>Forum Post: RE: DRV8899-Q1: question about SPI</title><link>https://e2e.ti.com/support/motor-drivers-group/motor-drivers/f/motor-drivers-forum/1643273/drv8899-q1-question-about-spi/6336387</link><pubDate>Thu, 07 May 2026 13:21:00 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">cb01d8b2-d089-468d-babb-77d1d8683490:4ff2e62d-af0c-4091-8e61-d9c4e35ba38e</guid><dc:creator>Murugavel4637</dc:creator><description>Hi Jay, The below table has a typo.

You can plug-in these values in the formulae given in the datasheet section 8.1.1.2 Thermal Calculations and see if the estimated die temperature would exceed TSD (thermal shutdown) limit for the device. The device does not have a specific power limit per se. That said, a very similar driver in DDV package the DRV8462 was tested with 48 V, 10 A full-scale current setting. See below thermal image. This was with Ta = 25 &amp;#176;C, still air, EVM heatsink. Note, this was the heatsink temperature not the die temperature. This amounts to about 480 W of drive. We tried with 52 V, the device hit TSD. With fan cooling it could support for longer durations without TSD. I hope this gives you an idea of usable load power driving capability for a specific heatsink and associated thermal conditions. Thank you.

You mentioned the board shorted to ground ( Verified by ~0 resistance from JP2 to GND) . This strongly suggests the internal high-side or low-side FETs in the fully differential amplifier have failed shorted due to thermal runaway. At ~1100Hz, a 50nF load requires a substantial amount of current (Power = f*C*V^2). If the boost converter cannot keep up, or if the duty cycle is too high, the internal power diode or the amplifier stage will fail. Yes, you should highly consider using the DRV2700EVM-HV500.Why: The standard DRV2700EVM is a boost converter (max 100-200Vpp). The HV500 uses the DRV2700 in a flyback configuration, which is designed to provide better power handling for larger capacitive loads.</description></item><item><title>Forum Post: RE: DRV2700: Part parameters</title><link>https://e2e.ti.com/support/motor-drivers-group/motor-drivers/f/motor-drivers-forum/1643199/drv2700-part-parameters/6335697</link><pubDate>Thu, 07 May 2026 03:28:00 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">cb01d8b2-d089-468d-babb-77d1d8683490:cc72a0cc-b707-41bb-9c5b-78c480c1046e</guid><dc:creator>Hailong Chen</dc:creator><description>The maximum output frequency for the DRV2700 is 20 kHz.The DRV2700 features an integrated 105-V boost converter. The maximum boost current is limited by the external resistor R_ext and the inductor saturation current. To achieve 105V, an efficient design should use a smaller Rext for a higher current limit, but the total load current is limited to a few milliamps at high frequency. The booster cannot sustain high-current, high-frequency signals at full voltage simultaneously.</description></item></channel></rss>
