7.3.3.1 Half-Bridge Control

In half-bridge control, each half-bridge gate driver can be individually controlled through the corresponding IN1/EN, IN2/PH, and nHIZx input pins. The nHIZx signals have priority over the IN1/EN and IN2/PH signals. For half-bridge control, you can refer to the INx designator. The DRV8706-Q1 internally handles the dead-time generation between high-side and low-side switching so that a single PWM input can control each half-bridge.

The DRV8706-Q1 provides the ability to independently Hi-Z each half-bridge gate driver through the nHIZx pins. The nHIZx pins should be tied to DVDD if this function is not required.

On SPI device variants, the IN1/EN, IN2/PH, HIZ1, and HIZ2 signals can also be controlled through the SPI registers. The IN1/EN and IN2/PH SPI control can be enabled through the IN1/EN_MODE and IN2/PH_MODE register settings. The signals are controlled through S_IN1/EN and S_IN2/PH register settings. The HIZ1 signal is the logic OR of the nHIZ1 pin and S_HIZ1 register setting. The HIZ2 signal is the logic OR of the nHIZ2 pin and S_HIZ2 register setting.
