LAUNCHXL-CC1350: Need Isolation?

Genius 9880 points
Part Number: LAUNCHXL-CC1350
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: CC1350

Hi Team,

Good day.

Customer is working in a project in which they are using 3 DC motors and 6 Ultrasonic sensors.

Customer want to confirm if they can directly operate the driver with microcontroller without any isolation to run motors (DRV8871PWM motor driver) without damaging the IC? 

Regards,

Maynard

  • Hi,

    On the CC1350 ref design there is a ferrite bead that isolates and allows for some filtering on the VDD power lines. There is a wide range of ferrites available and a ferrite bead can also be used to filter the DC motors and ultrasonic sensors as well if they cause any interference. 

    RF wise, I do not see any need for any additional isolation such as SAW filters.

    Regards,
