7.3.2 Half-Bridge Operation
The DRV8701 can be used to drive only a single half-bridge instead of a full H-bridge. To operate in this mode,
leave GH1 and GL1 disconnected. Also, connect a 1/10 W, 330-Ω 5% resistor from SH1 to GND.

Figure 20. Half-H Bridge Operation Mode
For the DRV8701E, this mode is controlled by tying the PH pin low. Table 3 gives the control scheme. EN = 1
enables the high-side FET, and EN = 0 enables the low-side FET. EN = 1 and PH = 1 is an invalid state.
