7.3.5.5 Mode 5: Fast Decay for Increasing and Decreasing Current

DRV8880 mode5_lvsd18.gifFigure 20. Fast/Fast Decay Mode

During fast decay, the polarity of the H-bridge is reversed. The H-bridge will be turned off as current approaches zero in order to prevent current flow in the reverse direction.

Fast decay exhibits the highest current ripple of the decay modes for a given tOFF. Transition time on decreasing current steps is much faster than slow decay since the current is allowed to decrease much faster.
