7.3.3 Input PWM Modes

The DRV8706-Q1 has multiple input PWM modes to support different control schemes and output load configurations. The gate driver outputs can be controlled through the IN1/EN, IN2/PH, and nHIZx input pins. The outputs can also be controlled through the S_IN1/EN, S_IN2/PH, and S_nHIZx register settings on SPI device variants. The PWM mode is set through the SPI register setting BRG_MODE on SPI device variants and the MODE pin on H/W device variants. The modes are listed below with additional details describing their functions.
