9.2.1.2.2.1 Example
Use Equation 13 and Equation 14 to calculate the value of IDRIVEP1 and IDRIVEP2 (respectively) for a gate to drain
charge of 14 nC and a rise time from 100 to 300 ns.
IDRIVEP1
14 nC
100 ns
140 mA
(13)
IDRIVEP2
14 nC
300 ns
47 mA
(14)
Select a value for IDRIVEP that is between 47 mA and 140 mA. For this example, the value of IDRIVEP was selected
as 120-mA source.
Use Equation 15 and Equation 16 to calculate the value of IDRIVEN1 and IDRIVEN2 (respectively) for a gate to drain
charge of 14 nC and a fall time from 50 to 150 ns.
IDRIVEN1
14 nC
50 ns
280 mA
(15)
IDRIVEN2
14 nC
150 ns
93 mA
(16)
Select a value for IDRIVEN that is between 93 mA and 280 mA. For this example, the value of IDRIVEN was selected
as 240-mA sink.
9.2.1.2.3 VDS Overcurrent Monitor Configuration
The VDS monitors are configured based on the worst-case motor current and the RDS(on) of the external
MOSFETs as shown in Equation 17.
VDS _ OCP ! Imax u RDS(on)max
(17)
9.2.1.2.3.1 Example
The goal of this example is to set the VDS monitor to trip at a current greater than 100 A. According to the
CSD18536KCS 60 V N-Channel NexFET™ Power MOSFET data sheet, the RDS(on) value is 1.8 times higher at
175°C, and the maximum RDS(on) value at a VGS of 10 V is 1.6 mΩ. From these values, the approximate worst-
case value of RDS(on) is 1.8 × 1.6 mΩ = 2.88 mΩ.
Using Equation 17 with a value of 2.88 mΩ for RDS(on) and a worst-case motor current of 100 A, Equation 18
shows the calculated the value of the VDS monitors.
VDS _ OCP ! 100 A u 2.88 m:
VDS _ OCP ! 0.288 V
(18)
For this example, the value of VDS_OCP was selected as 0.31 V.
The SPI devices allow for adjustment of the deglitch time for the VDS overcurrent monitor. The deglitch time can
be set to 2 µs, 4 µs, 6 µs, or 8 µs.
9.2.1.2.4 Sense-Amplifier Bidirectional Configuration (DRV8323 and DRV8323R)
The sense amplifier gain on the DRV8323, DRV8323R devices and sense resistor value are selected based on
the target current range, VREF voltage supply, sense-resistor power rating, and operating temperature range. In
bidirectional operation of the sense amplifier, the dynamic range at the output is approximately calculated as
shown in Equation 19.

Use Equation 20 to calculate the approximate value of the selected sense resistor with VO calculated using
Equation 19.
