DRV8212 Overview
Description
The DRV8212 is an integrated motor driver with four N-channel power FETs, charge pump regulator, and protection circuitry. The tripler charge pump architecture allows the device to operate down to 1.65 V to accommodate 1.8-V supply rails and low-battery conditions.
Key Features
- 1.65-V to 11-V operating supply voltage range
- High output current capability: – Full-bridge: 4-A peak – Half-bridge: 4-A peak per output – Parallel half-bridge: 8-A peak
- Multiple interfaces for flexibility and reduced GPIO
- Standard PWM Interface (IN1/IN2)
- Supports 1.8-V, 3.3-V, and 5-V logic inputs
- Ultra low-power sleep mode – <84.5 nA @ VVM = 5 V, VVCC = 3.3 V, TJ = 25°C – Timed autosleep mode to reduce GPIO
- Protection features – Undervoltage lockout (UVLO) – Overcurrent protection (OCP) – Thermal shutdown (TSD)
