3 Description
The DRV8872 is a brushed-DC motor driver for
printers, appliances, industrial equipment, and other
small machines. Two logic inputs control the H-bridge
driver, which consists of four N-channel MOSFETs
that can control motors bidirectionally with up to 3.6-A
peak current. The inputs can be pulse-width
modulated (PWM) to control motor speed, using a
choice of current-decay modes. Setting both inputs
low enters a low-power sleep mode.
The DRV8872 features integrated current regulation,
based on an internal reference voltage and the
voltage on pin ISEN, which is proportional to motor
current through an external sense resistor. The ability
to limit current to a known level can significantly
reduce the system power requirements and bulk
capacitance needed to maintain stable voltage,
especially for motor startup and stall conditions.
The device is fully protected from faults and short
circuits, including under-voltage (UVLO), over-current
(OCP), and over-temperature (TSD). Faults are
communicated by pulling the nFAULT output low.
When the fault condition is removed, the device
automatically resumes normal operation.
