9.2.4 Current Sense

A small shunt resistor on the GND pin can provide current sense information back to the microcontroller ADC. The microcontroller can use this information to detect motor load conditions, such as stall. Figure 9-26 shows an example schematic using the DRL package. If better current sensing dynamic range is needed, an amplifier can be added as shown in Figure 9-27.

The DSG thermal pad may be connected to the board ground net or the GND pin/sense signal net.
