SLVSFU5B February 2020 – August 2021 DRV8220
PRODUCTION DATA
The DRV8220 supports a low-power sleep mode to reduce current consumption from VM when the driver is not active. In low-power sleep mode, the device draws minimal current denoted by IVMQ. There are two ways to enter low-power sleep mode in the DSG package: autosleep and using the nSLEEP pin. Table 8-8 describes how to enter low-power sleep mode. The DRL package variant only supports autosleep mode.
Variant | Input pin state | OUT1 | OUT2 | Description |
---|---|---|---|---|
DRL | IN1 = IN2 = 0 | Hi-Z | Hi-Z | Autosleep for PWM interface: Upon entering this state, the outputs are disabled. The device remains in Active Mode for tSLEEP, then goes into low-power mode. |
DSG | MODE = 0, IN1 = IN2 = 0 | Hi-Z | Hi-Z | |
MODE = 1, EN = 0 | L → Hi-Z | L → Hi-Z | Autosleep for PH/EN interface: Upon entering this state, both outputs go into brake mode by turning the low-side FETs on. The device remains in this state for tSLEEP, then goes into low-power mode. Once in low-power mode, the outputs are disabled. | |
nSLEEP = 0 | Hi-Z | Hi-Z | Sleep pin: When the nSLEEP pin goes low, the outputs are disabled, and the device goes into low-power sleep mode immediately. |
The device returns to active mode when the input pins move to a state other than the ones in Table 8-8. To wake up the device from autosleep mode, the INx pins or EN pin (depending on MODE state and package variant) must be asserted high for longer than tWAKE before receiving PWM input signals. When using the nSLEEP pin, nSLEEP must be asserted high longer than tWAKE and the INx or EN pins must not be in an autosleep state.
In the DSG package, TI recommends tying the nSLEEP pin to the logic supply rail when using autosleep in PWM or PH/EN interface modes. For applications where a microcontroller controls nSLEEP, designers must ensure that nSLEEP is not floating while VM > VUVLO. This may cause unintended outputs, depending on the state of the MODE, IN1/PH, and IN2/EN pins. If this condition may occur in the system, then TI recommends using a 100 kΩ pulldown resistor on nSLEEP.
