10.1 Layout Guidelines

Since the DRV887x family of devices are integrated power MOSFETs device capable of driving high current, careful attention should be paid to the layout design and external component placement. Some design and layout guidelines are provided below.

  • Low ESR ceramic capacitors should be utilized for the VM to GND bypass capacitor, the VCP to VM charge pump storage capacitor, and the charge pump flying capacitor. X5R and X7R types are recommended.
  • The VM power supply and VCP, CPH, CPL charge pump capacitors should be placed as close to the device as possible to minimize the loop inductance.
  • The VM power supply bulk capacitor can be of ceramic or electrolytic type, but should also be placed as close as possible to the device to minimize the loop inductance.
  • VM, OUT1, OUT2, and PGND carry the high current from the power supply to the outputs and back to ground. Thick metal routing should be utilized for these traces as is feasible.
  • PGND and GND should connect together directly on the PCB ground plane. They are not intended to be isolated from each other.
  • The device thermal pad should be attached to the PCB top layer ground plane and internal ground plane (when available) through thermal vias to maximize the PCB heat sinking.
  • A recommended land pattern for the thermal vias is provided in the package drawing section.
  • The copper plane area attached to the thermal pad should be maximized to ensure optimal heat sinking.
