PIN 40-pin Package TYPE(1) DESCRIPTION
NAME MCF8315A
AGND 26 GND Device analog ground. Refer Layout Guidelines for connection recommendation.
ALARM 39 O Alarm signal: push-pull output. Pulled logic high during fault condition, if enabled.

If ALARM pin is not used, leave it floating.
AVDD 27 PWR O 3.3-V internal regulator output. Connect a X5R or X7R, 1-µF, 6.3-V ceramic capacitor between the AVDD and AGND pins. This regulator can source up to 20 mA for external circuits.
BRAKE 35 I High → Brake the motor
Low → Normal motor operation

If BRAKE pin is not used, connect to AGND directly.

If BRAKE pin is used to brake the motor, use an external 100-kΩ pull-down resistor (to AGND).
CP 8 PWR Charge pump output. Connect a X5R or X7R, 1-µF, 16-V ceramic capacitor between the CP and VM pins.
CPH 7 PWR Charge pump switching node. Connect a X5R or X7R, 47-nF, ceramic capacitor between the CPH and CPL pins. TI recommends a capacitor voltage rating at least twice the normal operating voltage of the device.
CPL 6 PWR
DACOUT1 36 O DAC output DACOUT1
DACOUT2 37 O DAC output DACOUT2
DACOUT2/SOX 38 O Multi-purpose pin:
DAC output when configured as DACOUT2
CSA output when configured as SOX
DGND 2 GND Device digital ground. Refer Layout Guidelines for connection recommendation.
DIR 34 I Direction of motor spinning;
When low, phase driving sequence is OUT A → OUT C → OUT B
When high, phase driving sequence is OUT A → OUT B → OUT C

If DIR pin is not used, connect to AGND or AVDD directly (depending on phase driving sequence needed).

If DIR pin is used for changing motor spin direction, use an external 100-kΩ pull-down resistor (to AGND).
DRVOFF 21 I Coast (Hi-Z) all six MOSFETs when DRVOFF is high.
DVDD 1 PWR 1.5-V internal regulator output. Connect a X5R or X7R, 2.2-µF, 6.3-V ceramic capacitor between the DVDD and DGND pins.
