8.1.3.4 Driving Single Brushed-DC Motor

The outputs of DRV8952 can be connected in parallel to increase the drive current. Figure 8-7 shows the schematic of DRV8952 driving a single brushed-DC motor.

Figure 8-7 Driving Single Brushed-DC motor with DRV8952

In this mode, a minimum of 30 nH to 100 nH inductance or a ferrite bead is required after the output pins before connecting the two channels together. This will help to prevent any shoot through between two paralleled channels during switching transient due to mismatch of paralleled channels (for example, asymmetric PCB layout, etc).
