The motor driver circuit includes four H-bridge drivers.
Each of the motor driver blocks employ N-channel
power MOSFETs configured as an H-bridge to drive
the motor windings.
A simple serial interface allows control of all functions
of the motor driver with only a few digital signals. The
devices also provides a low-power sleep function.
The motor drivers provide PWM current control
capability. The current is programmable, based on an
externally supplied reference voltage and an external
current sense resistor. In addition, eight current levels
(set through the serial interface) allow microstepping
with bipolar stepper motors.
Internal shutdown functions are provided for
overcurrent protection (OCP), short-circuit protection,
undervoltage lockout, and overtemperature.
The DRV8823 is packaged in a 48-pin HTSSOP
package (eco-friendly: RoHS and no Sb/Br).

7 Detailed Description
7.1 Overview
The DRV8823 is a dual stepper motor driver solution for applications that require independent control of two
different motors. The device integrates four NMOS H-bridges, a microstepping indexer, and various fault
protection features. The DRV8823 can be powered with a supply voltage between 8 and 32 V, and is capable of
providing an output current up to 1.5 A full scale. Actual full-scale current will depend on ambient temperature,
supply voltage and PCB ground size.
A serial data interface is included to control all functions of the motor driver. Current regulation through all four Hbridges is achieved using three register bits per H-bridge. The three register bits are used to scale the current in
each bridge as a percentage of the full-scale current set by VREF input pin and sense resistor. The current
regulation is configurable with two different decay modes, fixed slow and mixed.
The gate drive to each FET in all four H-Bridges is controlled to prevent any cross-conduction (shoot through
current) during transitions.

7.4.2 Current Regulation
The motor driver employs fixed-frequency PWM current regulation (also called current chopping). When a
winding is activated, the current through it rises until it reaches a threshold, then the current is switched off until
the next PWM period.
The PWM frequency is fixed at 50 kHz, but may also be set to 100 kHz by factory option.
The PWM chopping current is set by a comparator which compares the voltage across a current sense resistor
connected to the xISEN pins, multiplied by a factor of 5, with a reference voltage. The reference voltage is input
from the VREF pin.
The full-scale (100%) chopping current is calculated as follows:

(1)
Example:
If a 0.5-Ω sense resistor is used and the VREFx pin is 2.5 V, the full-scale (100%) chopping current is
2.5 V / (5 × 0.5 Ω) = 1 A.
Three serial interface register bits per H-bridge (xI2, xI1, and xI0) are used to scale the current in each bridge as
a percentage of the full-scale current set by the VREF input pin and sense resistance. Table 2 shows the
function of the bits.

7.4.3 Blanking Time
After the current is enabled in an H-bridge, the voltage on the xISEN pin is ignored for a fixed period of time
before enabling the current sense circuitry. This blanking time is fixed at 3.75 μs. Note that the blanking time also
sets the minimum on-time of the PWM.
7.4.4 Decay Mode
During PWM current chopping, the H-bridge is enabled to drive through the motor winding until the PWM current
chopping threshold is reached (see case 1 in Figure 12). The current flow direction shown indicates positive
current flow in Figure 12.
After the chopping current threshold is reached, the H-bridge can operate in two different states: fast decay or
slow decay.
In fast-decay mode, after the PWM chopping current level is reached, the H-bridge reverses state to allow
winding current to flow in a reverse direction. As the winding current approaches 0, the bridge is disabled to
prevent any reverse current flow. See case 2 in Figure 12 for fast-decay mode.
In slow-decay mode, winding current is recirculated by enabling both of the low-side FETs in the bridge (see
case 3 in Figure 12).

Figure 12. Decay Mode
The DRV8823 supports slow decay and also a mixed-decay mode. Mixed-decay mode begins as fast decay, but
at a fixed period of time (75% of the PWM cycle) it switches to slow decay mode for the remainder of the fixed
PWM period.

The state of the xDECAY bits in the serial interface registers selects whether the device is in slow-decay or
mixed-decay mode. If the xDECAY bit is 0,the device selects slow decay. If the xDECAY bit is 1, the device
selects mixed decay.
7.4.5 Protection Circuits
The DRV8823 is fully protected against undervoltage, overcurrent, and overtemperature events.
7.4.5.1 OCP
All of the drivers in DRV8823 are protected with an OCP circuit.
The OCP circuit includes an analog current limit circuit, which acts by removing the gate drive from each output
FET if the current through it exceeds a preset level. This circuit limits the current to a level that is safe to prevent
damage to the FET.
A digital circuit monitors the analog current limit circuits. If any analog current limit condition exists for longer than
a preset period, all drivers in the device are disabled.
The device is re-enabled upon the removal and re-application of power at the VM pins.
7.4.5.2 Thermal Shutdown (TSD)
If the die temperature exceeds safe limits, all drivers in the device are shut down.
The device remains disabled until the die temperature has fallen to a safe level. After the temperature has fallen,
the device may be re-enabled upon the removal and re-application of power at the VM pin.
7.4.5.3 Undervoltage Lockout (UVLO)
If at any time the voltage on the VM pins falls below the UVLO threshold voltage, all circuitry in the device is
disabled. Operation resumes when VM rises above the UVLO threshold. The indexer logic is reset to its initial
condition in the event of an UVLO.
7.4.5.4 Shoot-Through Current Prevention
The gate drive to each FET in the H-bridge is controlled to prevent any cross-conduction (shoot through current)
during transitions.
7.4.6 Serial Data Transmission
Data transfers consist of sixteen bits of serial data, shifted into the SDATA pin LSB first.
On serial writes to DRV8823, additional clock edges following the final data bit continue to shift data bits into the
data register; therefore, the last 16 bits presented are latched and used.
Select one of two registers by setting bits in an address field in the four upper bits in the serial data transferred
(ADDR in Table 3 and Table 4). One 16-bit register is used to control motor 1 (bridges A and B), and a second
16-bit register is used to control motor 2 (bridges C and D).
Data can only be transferred into the serial interface if the SCS input pin is active high.
Data is initially clocked into a temporary holding register. This data is latched into the motor driver on the rising
edge of the SSTB pin. If the SSTB pin is tied high at all times, the data is latched in after all 16 bits have been
transferred.

8.2.2 Detailed Design Procedure
8.2.2.1 Motor Voltage
The appropriate motor voltage will depend on the ratings of the motor selected and the desired torque. A higher
voltage shortens the current rise time in the coils of the stepper motor allowing a greater average torque. Using a
higher voltage also allows the motor to operate at a faster speed than a lower voltage.
8.2.3 Drive Current
The current path running to the motor starts from the supply VM, then goes through the high-side sourcing
NMOS power FET, moves through the inductive winding load of the motor, then through the low-side sinking
NMOS power FET, and finally going through the external sense resistor. Power dissipation losses in both NMOS
power FETs inside of the DRV8823 are shown in the following equation: Equation 2.
P = I2 × (RDS (on) × 2)
(2)
The DRV8823 has been measured to be capable of 1.5-A continuous current with the HTSSOP package at 25°C
on standard FR-4 PCBs. The max continuous current varies based on PCB design and the ambient temperature.

9 Power Supply Recommendations
Having appropriate local bulk capacitance is an important factor in motor drive system design. It is generally
beneficial to have more bulk capacitance, while the disadvantages are increased cost and physical size.
The amount of local capacitance needed depends on a variety of factors, including:
• The highest current required by the motor system.
• The power supply’s capacitance and ability to source current.
• The amount of parasitic inductance between the power supply and motor system.
• The acceptable voltage ripple.
• The type of motor used (Brushed DC, Brushless DC, Stepper).
• The type of motor used (Brushed DC, Brushless DC, Stepper).
The inductance between the power supply and motor drive system will limit the rate current can change from the
power supply. If the local bulk capacitance is too small, the system will respond to excessive current demands or
dumps from the motor with a change in voltage. When adequate bulk capacitance is used, the motor voltage
remains stable and high current can be quickly supplied.
The data sheet generally provides a recommended value, but system-level testing is required to determine the
appropriate sized bulk capacitor.
Figure 19. Example Setup of Motor Drive System With External Power Supply
10 Layout
10.1 Layout Guidelines
The bulk capacitor should be placed to minimize the distance of the high-current path through the motor driver
device. The connecting metal trace widths should be as wide as possible, and numerous vias should be used
when connecting PCB layers. These practices minimize inductance and allow the bulk capacitor to deliver high
current.
Small-value capacitors should be ceramic, and placed closely to device pins.
The high-current device outputs should use wide metal traces.
The device thermal pad should be soldered to the PCB top-layer ground plane. Multiple vias should be used to
connect to a large bottom-layer ground plane. The use of large metal planes and multiple vias help dissipate the
I2 × RDS(on) heat that is generated in the device.

10.3 Thermal Considerations
The DRV8823 has TSD as described in Thermal Shutdown (TSD). If the die temperature exceeds approximately
150°C, the device is disabled until the temperature drops to a safe level.
Any tendency of the device to enter TSD is an indication of excessive power dissipation, insufficient heatsinking,
or too high an ambient temperature.
10.3.1 Power Dissipation
Power dissipation in the DRV8823 is dominated by the power dissipated in the output FET resistance, or RDS(ON).
Average power dissipation when running a stepper motor can be roughly estimated by Equation 3.
PTOT = 4
·
RDS(ON)
·
(IOUT(RMS))
2
where
•
•
•
PTOT is the total power dissipation.
RDS(ON) is the resistance of each FET.
IOUT(RMS) is the RMS output current being applied to each winding.
(3)
IOUT(RMS) is equal to approximately 0.7x the full-scale output current setting. The factor of 4 comes from the fact
that there are two motor windings, and at any instant two FETs are conducting winding current for each winding
(one high side and one low side). Remember that the DRV8823 has two stepper motor drivers, so the power
dissipation of each must be added together to determine the total device power dissipation.
The maximum amount of power that can be dissipated in the DRV8823 depends on ambient temperature and
heatsinking. Use the thermal Dissipation Ratings to estimate the temperature rise for typical PCB constructions.
Note that RDS(ON) increases with temperature, so as the device heats, the power dissipation increases. Take this
into consideration when sizing the heatsink.
10.3.2 Heatsinking
The PowerPAD™ package uses an exposed pad to remove heat from the device. For proper operation, this pad
must be thermally connected to copper on the PCB to dissipate heat. On a multi-layer PCB with a ground plane,
this can be accomplished by adding a number of vias to connect the thermal pad to the ground plane. On PCBs
without internal planes, copper area can be added on either side of the PCB to dissipate heat. If the copper area
is on the opposite side of the PCB from the device, thermal vias are used to transfer the heat between top and
bottom layers.
For details about how to design the PCB, refer to TI application report, PowerPAD™ Thermally Enhanced
Package (SLMA002) and TI application brief, PowerPAD™ Made Easy, (SLMA004) available at www.ti.com.
In general, the more copper area that can be provided, the more power can be dissipated. Figure 21 shows
thermal resistance versus copper plane area for both a single-sided PCB with 2-oz copper heatsink area, and a
4-layer PCB with 1-oz copper and a solid ground plane. Both PCBs are 76 mm × 114 mm, and 1.6-mm thick.
The heatsink effectiveness increases rapidly to about 20 cm2, then levels off somewhat for larger areas.
Six pins on the center of each side of the package are also connected to the device ground. A copper area can
be used on the PCB that connects to the PowerPAD as well as to all the ground pins on each side of the device.
This is especially useful for single-layer PCB designs.
