NOTE
Information in the following applications sections is not part of the TI component
specification, and TI does not warrant its accuracy or completeness. TI’s customers are
responsible for determining suitability of components for their purposes. Customers should
validate and test their design implementation to confirm system functionality.
8.1 Application Information
The DRV8833 is used in brushed DC or stepper motor control. The following design procedure can be used to
configure the DRV8833 in a brushed DC motor application. The inputs and outputs are connected in parallel to
achieve higher current.
8.2 Typical Application
The two H-bridges in the DRV8833 can be connected in parallel for double the current of a single H-bridge. The
internal dead time in the DRV8833 prevents any risk of cross-conduction (shoot-through) between the two
bridges due to timing differences between the two bridges. Figure 7 shows the connections.

8.2.2.1 Motor Voltage
The motor voltage to use will depend on the ratings of the motor selected and the desired RPM. A higher voltage
spins a brushed DC motor faster with the same PWM duty cycle applied to the power FETs. A higher voltage
also increases the rate of current change through the inductive motor windings.
