PRODUCTION DATA
Refer to the PDF data sheet for device specific package drawings
In the 2-pin interface, the DRV8847 device is configured to drive a stepper motor or two BDC motors with a lower number of control inputs from the microcontroller. To configure the 2-pin interface operation, connect the MODE pin to the external supply (3.3 V or 5 V), connect the IN3 pin to the ground, and use the IN1 and IN2 pins to control the driver. In this mode, the stepper or brushed DC motor operates in only two modes (forward mode and reverse mode) i.e. only full-step operation is supported for the stepper motor. This 2-pin interface is very useful for low GPIO applications such as refrigerator dampers. Sense resistors can be connected to the ISEN12 and ISEN34 pins for current regulation.
Use this interface option for the following loads:
Table 7-4 lists the configurations for 2-pin interface operation and Figure 7-9 shows the application diagram for 2-pin interface operation.
nSLEEP | IN1 | IN2 | IN3 | IN4 | OUT1 | OUT2 | OUT3 | OUT4 | FUNCTION (DC MOTOR) |
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
0 | X | X | X | X | Z | Z | Z | Z | Sleep mode |
1 | 0 | 0 | X | L | H | Reverse direction | |||
1 | 1 | 0 | X | H | L | Forward direction | |||
1 | 0 | 0 | X | L | H | Reverse direction | |||
1 | 1 | 0 | X | H | L | Forward direction |
In this mode, two of the OUTx pins are always 'ON' if the device is in a non-sleep state (nSLEEP = HIGH). Therefore, to completely de-energize the motor-coils connected to OUTx pins, the user has to pull-down the nSLEEP pin.
