Hi WangLi:

Thanks for your verification,

Another thing need to be verified from your side: customer side need to use MSP432 to driver two DRV842X, this shall be OK, right?

Richard,

We are not the most familiar with MSP432, but given each DRV842x only needs on PWM for generating step pulses on STEP input and one GPIO to control direction, I think this is well within the capabilities of a MSP432.

So, yes, I expect it is OK.

Regards,

Ryan
