PRODUCTION DATA
Brushless-DC motors are typically rated for a certain voltage (for example 12 V and 24 V). Operating a motor at a higher voltage corresponds to a lower drive current to obtain the same motor power. A higher operating voltage also corresponds to a higher obtainable rpm. DRV8316-Q1 device allows for the use of higher operating voltage because of a maximum VM rating of 40 V.
Operating at lower voltages generally allows for more accurate control of phase currents. The DRV8316-Q1 functions down to a supply of 4.5V.
