SLRS065E – SEPTEMBER 2013 – REVISED NOVEMBER 2015
11.1 Layout Guidelines
• The VM pin should be bypassed to GND using a low-ESR ceramic bypass capacitor with a recommended
value of 0.1-μF rated for VM.
• This capacitor should be placed as close as possible to the VM pin on the device with a thick trace or ground
plane connection to the device GND pin.
• The VM pin must be bypassed to ground using and appropriate bulk capacitor. This component must be
located close to the DRV8860.
11.2 Layout Example
