Hi all
Would you mind if we ask DRV8711?
We would like to confirm Predriver Fault(XPDF) Indexer mode and PWM mode.
<PWM mode>
In PWM mode, if excessive current is detected on the gate drive outputs (which would be indicative of a failed/shorted output FET or PCB fault),
->Acoording to short between XOUT1(or XOUT2) and GND, we guess that it is possible to confirm.
<Indexer mode>
The datasheet shows "When in indexer mode, both H-bridges are disabled, the xPDF bit in the STATUS register is set, and the FAULTn pin is driven low."
As the condition of occurence, is it the same as PWM mode? short between XOUT1(or XOUT2) and GND??
Kind regards,
Hirotaka Matsumoto
