1.3 Specification

The DRV821x and DRV823x EVM connect to a local computer USB port through a USB-A to Micro-USB cable. An onboard eZ-FET lite USB emulator allows for programming and debugging the main MSP430 microcontroller without the need for an external debugger. A 3.3V LDO generates a 3.3V rail from the USB 5V supply. This 3.3V is used to power the EZFET MCU, main MSP430, and motor driver VCC pin. P1 signal header uses removable shunts to pass the signals from the MCU to the motor driver. Remove any of these shunts to easily jump in the control signals to the driver. Provide an external motor power supply to the J8 screw terminal within the operating range of the device. DRV8213, DRV8214, and DRV8215 support 1.65V to 11V supply voltage range, while DRV8234 and DRV8235 support 4.5V to 38V.
