DRV8306 38-V Brushless DC Motor Controller
1 Features
3 Description
•
The DRV8306 device is an integrated gate driver for
3-phase brushless DC (BLDC) motor applications.
The device provides three half-bridge gate drivers,
each capable of driving high-side and low-side Nchannel power MOSFETs. The DRV8306 device
generates the proper gate drive voltages using an
integrated charge pump for the high-side MOSFETs
and a linear regulator for the low-side MOSFETs. The
smart gate drive architecture supports up to 150-mA
source and 300-mA sink peak gate drive current and
15-mA rms gate drive current capability.

ATM and Currency Counting
The device provides an internal 120° commutation for
the trapezoidal BLDC motor. The DRV8306 device
has three Hall comparators which use the input from
the Hall elements for internal commutation. The duty
cycle ratio of the phase voltage of the motor can be
adjusted through the PWM pin. Additional brake
(nBRAKE) and direction (DIR) pins are provided for
braking and setting the direction of the BLDC motor.
A 3.3-V, 30-mA low-dropout (LDO) regulator is
provided to supply the external controller and Hall
elements. An additional FGOUT signal is provided
which is a measure of the commutation frequency.
This signal can be used for implementing the closedloop control of BLDC motor.
A low-power sleep mode is provided to achieve low
quiescent current draw by shutting down most of the
internal circuitry. Internal protection functions are
provided for undervoltage lockout, charge pump fault,
MOSFET overcurrent, MOSFET short circuit, gate
driver fault, and overtemperature. Fault conditions are
indicated on the nFAULT pin.

7 Detailed Description
7.1 Overview
The DRV8306 device is an integrated 6-V to 38-V gate driver for three-phase motor-drive applications. The
device reduces system component count, cost, and complexity by integrating three independent half-bridge gate
drivers, charge pump, and linear low-dropout (LDO) regulator for the high-side and low-side gate-driver supply
voltages. A hardware interface (H/W) option allows for configuring the most commonly used settings through
fixed external resistors.
The gate drivers support external N-channel high-side and low-side power MOSFETs and can drive up to 150mA source and 300-mA sink peak currents with a 15-mA average output current. The high-side gate drive supply
voltage is generated using a doubler charge-pump architecture that regulates the VCP output to VVM + 10 V. The
low-side gate drive supply voltage is generated using a linear regulator from the VM power supply that regulates
to 10 V. A smart gate-drive architecture provides the ability to adjust the output gate-drive current strength
allowing for the gate driver to control the power MOSFET VDS switching speed. This allows for the removal of
external gate drive resistors and diodes reducing BOM component count, cost, and PCB area. The architecture
also uses an internal state machine to protect against gate-drive short-circuit events, control the half-bridge dead
time, and protect against dV/dt parasitic turnon of the external power MOSFET.
The DRV8306 device also integrates three Hall comparators for rotor position sensing using the Hall elements.
This input is used for electronically commutating the BLDC motor in trapezoidal mode. This device also has a
3.3-V LDO regulator which can be powered up to loads up to 30 mA.
In addition to the high level of device integration, the DRV8306 device provides a wide range of integrated
protection features. These features include power-supply undervoltage lockout (UVLO), charge-pump
undervoltage lockout (CPUV), VDS and VSENSE overcurrent monitoring (OCP), gate-driver short-circuit detection
(GDF), and overtemperature shutdown (OTSD). Fault events are indicated by the nFAULT pin.
The DRV8306 device is available in a 0.4-mm pin pitch, VQFN surface-mount package. The VQFN package size
is 4-mm × 4-mm.

The VCC pin is not a pin on the DRV8306 device, but a VCC supply-voltage pullup is required for the open-drain output nFAULT and
SDO. These pins can also be pulled up to DVDD.
7.3.1 Three Phase Smart Gate Drivers
The DRV8306 device integrates three, half-bridge gate drivers, each capable of driving high-side and low-side Nchannel power MOSFETs. A doubler charge pump provides the proper gate bias voltage to the high-side
MOSFET across a wide operating voltage range in addition to providing 100% duty-cycle support. An internal
linear regulator provides the gate-bias voltage for the low-side MOSFETs.
The DRV8306 device implements a smart gate-drive architecture which lets the user dynamically adjust the gate
drive current (through the IDRIVE pin) without requiring external gate current limiting resistors. Additionally, this
architecture provides a variety of protection features for the external MOSFETs including automatic dead-time
insertion, parasitic dV/dt gate turnon prevention, and gate-fault detection.
7.3.1.1 PWM Control Mode (1x PWM Mode)
The DRV8306 device provides a 1x PWM control mode for driving the BLDC motor into trapezoidal currentcontrol mode. The DRV8306 device uses 6-step block commutation tables that are stored internally. This feature
lets a three-phase BLDC motor be controlled using a single PWM sourced from a simple controller. The PWM is
applied on the PWM pin and determines the output frequency and duty cycle of the half-bridges.
The half-bridge output states are managed by the HPA, HNA, HPB, HNB, HPC and HNC pins which are used as
state logic inputs. The state inputs are the position feedback of the BLDC motor. The device always operates
with synchronous rectification.
The DIR pin controls the direction of BLDC motor in either clockwise or counter-clockwise direction. Tie the DIR
pin low if this feature is not required.
The nBRAKE input halts the motor by turning off all high-side MOSFETs and turning on all low-side MOSFETs
when it is pulled low. This brake is independent of the states of the other input pins. Tie the nBRAKE pin high if
this feature is not required.

7.3.1.2 Hardware Interface Mode
The DRV8306 device supports a hardware interface mode for simple end-application design. In this hardware
interface device, the VDS overcurrent limit and the gate drive current levels can be configured through the
resistor-configurable inputs, IDRIVE and VDS. This feature lets the application designer configure the most
commonly used device settings by tying the pin logic high or logic low, or with a simple pullup or pulldown
resistor.
The IDRIVE pin configures the gate drive current strength. The VDS pin configures the voltage threshold of the
VDS overcurrent monitors.
For more information on the hardware interface, see the Pin Diagrams section.

7.3.1.3 Gate Driver Voltage Supplies
The high-side gate-drive voltage supply is created using a doubler charge pump that operates from the VM
voltage supply input. The charge pump lets the gate driver correctly bias the high-side MOSFET gate with
respect to its source across a wide input supply voltage range. The charge pump is regulated to maintain a fixed
output voltage of VVM + 10 V and supports an average output current of 15 mA. When the VVM voltage is less
than 12 V, the charge pump operates in full doubler mode and generates VVCP = 2 × VVM – 1.5 V when unloaded.
The charge pump is continuously monitored for undervoltage to prevent under-driven MOSFET conditions. The
charge pump requires a X5R or X7R, 1-µF, 16-V ceramic capacitor between the VM and VCP pins to act as the
storage capacitor. Additionally, a X5R or X7R, 22-nF, VM-rated ceramic capacitor is required between the CPH
and CPL pins to act as the flying capacitor.

The low-side gate drive voltage is created using a linear low-dropout (LDO) regulator that operates from the VM

regulator is monitored for undervoltage to prevent under-driven MOSFET conditions.

7.3.1.4 Smart Gate Drive Architecture
The DRV8306 gate drivers use an adjustable, complimentary, push-pull topology for both the high-side and lowside drivers. This topology allows for both a strong pullup and pulldown of the external MOSFET gates.
Additionally, the gate drivers use a smart gate-drive architecture to provide additional control of the external
power MOSFETs, take additional steps to protect the MOSFETs, and allow for optimal tradeoffs between
efficiency and robustness. This architecture is implemented through two components called IDRIVE and TDRIVE
which are detailed in the IDRIVE: MOSFET Slew-Rate Control section and TDRIVE: MOSFET Gate Drive
Control section. Figure 12 shows the high-level functional block diagram of the gate driver.
The IDRIVE gate-drive current and TDRIVE gate-drive time should be initially selected based on the parameters
of the external power MOSFET used in the system and the desired rise and fall times (see the Application and
Implementation section).
The high-side gate driver also implements a Zener clamp diode to help protect the external MOSFET gate from
overvoltage conditions in the case of external short-circuit events on the MOSFET.

7.3.1.4.1 IDRIVE: MOSFET Slew-Rate Control
The IDRIVE component implements adjustable gate-drive current to control the MOSFET VDS slew rates. The
MOSFET VDS slew rates are a critical factor for optimizing radiated emissions, energy and duration of diode
recovery spikes, dV/dt gate turnon leading to shoot-through, and switching voltage transients related to parasitics
in the external half-bridge. The IDRIVE component operates on the principal that the MOSFET VDS slew rates
are predominately determined by the rate of gate charge (or gate current) delivered during the MOSFET QGD or
Miller charging region. By allowing the gate driver to adjust the gate current, it can effectively control the slew
rate of the external power MOSFETs.

SLVSE38A – APRIL 2018 – REVISED JULY 2018

The IDRIVE component allows the DRV8306 device to dynamically switch between gate drive currents through
an IDRIVE pin. This hardware interface devices provides seven IDRIVE settings from 15-mA to 150-mA (source)
and 30-mA to 300-mA (sink). The gate drive current setting is delivered to the gate during the turnon and turnoff
of the external power MOSFET for the tDRIVE duration. After the MOSFET turnon or turnoff, the gate driver
switches to a smaller hold current (IHOLD) to improve the gate driver efficiency. Additional details on the IDRIVE
settings are described in the Pin Diagrams section.
7.3.1.4.2 TDRIVE: MOSFET Gate Drive Control
The TDRIVE component is an integrated gate-drive state machine that provides automatic dead time insertion
through switching handshaking, parasitic dV/dt gate turnon prevention, and MOSFET gate-fault detection.
The first component of the TDRIVE state machine is automatic dead-time insertion. Dead time is period of time
between the switching of the external high-side and low-side MOSFETs to ensure that they do not cross conduct
and cause shoot-through. The DRV8306 device uses VGS voltage monitors to measure the MOSFET gate-tosource voltage and determine the proper time to switch instead of relying on a fixed time value. This feature
allows the gate-driver dead time to adjust for variation in the system such as temperature drift and variation in the
MOSFET parameters. An additional digital dead time (tDEAD) is inserted on top of the gate-driver dead time and is
fixed for the DRV8306 device.
The second component focuses on prevention of parasitic dV/dt gate turnon. To implement this feature, the
TDRIVE state machine enables a strong pulldown current (ISTRONG) on the opposite MOSFET gate whenever a
MOSFET is switching. The strong pulldown last for the TDRIVE duration. This feature helps remove parasitic
charge that couples into the MOSFET gate when the half-bridge switch-node voltage slews rapidly.
The third component implements a gate-fault detection scheme to detect pin-to-pin solder defects, a MOSFET
gate failure, or a MOSFET gate stuck-high or stuck-low voltage condition. This implementation is done with a pair
of VGS gate-to-source voltage monitors for each half-bridge gate driver. When the gate driver receives a
command to change the state of the half-bridge it begins to monitor the gate voltage of the external MOSFET. If
the VGS voltage has not reached the proper threshold at the end of the tDRIVE period, the gate driver reports a
fault. To ensure that a false fault is not detected, the user must ensure that the tDRIVE time is longer than the time
required to charge or discharge the MOSFET gate (this setting can be configured indirectly using the IDRIVE
pin). The tDRIVE time does not increase the PWM time and will terminate if another PWM command is received
while active. Additional details on the TDRIVE settings are described in the Pin Diagrams section for hardware
interface devices.
Figure 13 shows an example of the TDRIVE state machine in operation.

7.3.1.4.3 Gate Drive Clamp
A clamping structure limits the gate drive output voltage to the VGS,CLAMP voltage to help protect the external
high-side MOSFETs from gate overvoltage damage. The positive voltage clamp is realized using a series of
diodes. The negative voltage clamp uses the body diodes of the internal pulldown gate driver as shown in
Figure 14.

7.3.1.4.4 Propagation Delay
The propagation delay time (tpd) is measured as the time between an PWM logic edge detected to the GHX /
GLX transition as shown in Figure 13. This time comprises three parts consisting of the digital input deglitcher
delay, the digital propagation delay, and the delay through the analog gate drivers.
The input deglitcher prevents high-frequency noise on the input pins from affecting the output state of the gate
drivers. To support multiple control modes and dead time insertion, a small digital delay is added as the input
command propagates through the device. Lastly, the analog gate drivers have a small delay that contributes to
the overall propagation delay of the device.
In order for the output to change state during normal operation, one MOSFET must first be turned off. The
MOSFET gate is ramped down according to the IDRIVE setting, and the observed propagation delay ends when
the MOSFET gate falls below the threshold voltage.
7.3.1.4.5 MOSFET VDS Monitors
The gate drivers implement adjustable VDS voltage monitors to detect overcurrent or short-circuit conditions on
the external power MOSFETs. When the monitored voltage is greater than the VDS trip point (VVDS_OCP) for
longer than the deglitch time (tOCP), an overcurrent condition is detected and the driver enters into the VDS
automatic-retry mode.
The high-side VDS monitors measure the voltage between the VDRAIN and SHx pins and the low side VDS
monitors measure the voltage between the SHx and ISEN pins. The VVDS_OCP threshold is programmable from
0.15 V to 1.8 V. Additional information on the VDS monitor levels are described in the Pin Diagrams section.

7.3.1.4.6 VDRAIN Sense Pin
The DRV8306 device provides a separate sense pin for the common point of the high-side MOSFET drain. This
pin is called VDRAIN. This pin allows the sense line for the overcurrent monitors (VDRAIN) and the power supply
(VM) to remain separate and prevent noise on the VDRAIN sense line. This separation also allows for a small
filter to be implemented on the gate driver supply (VM) or to insert a boost converter to support lower voltage
operation if desired. Care must still be taken when the filter or separate supply is designed because VM is still
the reference point for the VCP charge pump that supplies the high-side gate drive voltage (VGSH). The VM
supply must not drift too far from the VDRAIN supply to avoid violating the VGS voltage specification of the
external power MOSFETs.
7.3.2 DVDD Linear Voltage Regulator
A 3.3-V, 30-mA linear regulator is integrated into the DRV8306 device and is available for use by external
circuitry. This regulator can provide the supply voltage for a low-power microcontroller or other low-current
supporting circuitry. The output of the DVDD regulator should be bypassed near the DVDD pin with a X5R or
X7R, 1-µF, 6.3-V ceramic capacitor routed directly back to the adjacent AGND ground pin.
The DVDD nominal, no-load output voltage is 3.3 V. When the DVDD load current exceeds 30 mA, the regulator
functions like a constant-current source. The output voltage drops significantly with a current load greater than 30
mA.

7.3.3 Pulse-by-Pulse Current Limit
The current-limit circuit activates if the voltage detected across the low-side sense resistor (ISEN pin) exceeds
the VLIMIT voltage. This feature restricts motor current to less than the VLIMIT voltage divided by the RSENSE
resistance.
NOTE
The current-limit circuit is ignored immediately after the PWM signal goes active for a short
blanking time to prevent false trips of the current-limit circuit.
If the current limit activates, the high-side FET is disabled until the beginning of the next PWM cycle. Because
the synchronous rectification is always enabled, when the current limit activates, the low-side FET is activated
while the high-side FET is disabled.

as shown in Figure 20.
In addition to the hysteresis, the Hall inputs are deglitched with a circuit that ignores any extra Hall transitions for
a period of tHDEG after sensing a valid transition. Ignoring these transitions for the tHDEG time prevents PWM noise
from being coupled into the Hall inputs, which can result in erroneous commutation.
If excessive noise is still coupled into the Hall comparator inputs, adding capacitors between the positive and
negative inputs of the Hall comparators may be required. The ESD protection circuitry on the Hall inputs
implements a diode to the DVDD pin. Because of this diode, the voltage on the Hall inputs should not exceed the
DVDD voltage.
Because the DVDD pin is disabled in standby mode (ENABLE inactive), the Hall inputs should not be driven by
external voltages in standby mode. If the Hall sensors are powered externally, the supply to the Hall sensors
should be disabled if the DRV8306 device is put into standby mode. In addition, the Hall sensor power supply
should be powered up after enabling the motor otherwise an invalid Hall state may cause a delay in motor
operation.

7.3.7.1 VM Supply Undervoltage Lockout (UVLO)
If at any time the input supply voltage on the VM pin falls below the VUVLO threshold, all of the external MOSFETs
are disabled, the charge pump is disabled, and the nFAULT pin is driven low. Normal operation resumes (gate
driver operation and the nFAULT pin is released) when the VM undervoltage condition is removed.
7.3.7.2 VCP Charge-Pump Undervoltage Lockout (CPUV)
If at any time the voltage on the VCP pin (charge pump) falls below the VCPUV threshold voltage of the charge
pump, all of the external MOSFETs are disabled and the nFAULT pin is driven low. Normal operation resumes
(gate-driver operation and the nFAULT pin is released) when the VCP undervoltage condition is removed.
7.3.7.3 MOSFET VDS Overcurrent Protection (VDS_OCP)
A MOSFET overcurrent event is sensed by monitoring the VDS voltage drop across the external MOSFET RDS(on).
If the voltage across an enabled MOSFET exceeds the VVDS_OCP threshold for longer than the tOCP_DEG deglitch
time, a VDS_OCP event is recognized. The VVDS_OCP threshold is set with the VDS pin, the tOCP_DEG is fixed at
4.5 µs, and the driver operates with fixed for 4-ms automatic retry in an OCP event, but can be disabled by tying
the VDS pin to DVDD.
7.3.7.4 VSENSE Overcurrent Protection (SEN_OCP)
Three-phase bridge overcurrent is also monitored by sensing the voltage drop across the external current-sense
resistor with the ISEN pin. If at any time the voltage on the ISEN input of the current-sense amplifier exceeds the
VSEN_OCP threshold for longer than the tOCP_DEG deglitch time, a SEN_OCP event is recognized. The VSEN,OCP
threshold is fixed at 1.8 V, tOCP_DEG is fixed at 4 µs, and, during the OCP event, the driver operates with fixed
tRETRY for 4-ms automatic retry.
7.3.7.5 Gate Driver Fault (GDF)
The GHx and GLx pins are monitored such that if the voltage on the external MOSFET gate does not increase or
decrease after the tDRIVE time, a gate driver fault is detected. This fault may be encountered if the GHx or GLx
pins are shorted to the PGND, SHx, or VM pins. Additionally, a gate driver fault may be encountered if the
selected IDRIVE setting is not sufficient to turn on the external MOSFET within the tDRIVE period. After a gate drive
fault is detected, all external MOSFETs are disabled and the nFAULT pin is driven low. Normal operation
resumes (gate driver operation and the nFAULT pin is released) when the gate driver fault condition is removed.
Gate driver faults can indicate that the selected IDRIVE or tDRIVE settings are too low to slew the external MOSFET
in the desired time. Increasing either the IDRIVE or tDRIVE setting can resolve gate driver faults in these cases.
Alternatively, if a gate-to-source short occurs on the external MOSFET, a gate driver fault is reported because of
the MOSFET gate not turning on.

7.3.7.6 Thermal Shutdown (OTSD)
If the die temperature exceeds the trip point of the thermal shutdown limit (TOTSD), all the external MOSFETs are
disabled, the charge pump is shut down, and the nFAULT pin is driven low. Normal operation resumes (gate
driver operation and the nFAULT pin is released) when the overtemperature condition is removed. This
protection feature cannot be disabled.
7.4 Device Functional Modes
7.4.1 Gate Driver Functional Modes
7.4.1.1 Sleep Mode
The ENABLE pin manages the state of the DRV8306 device. When the ENABLE pin is low, the device goes to a
low-power sleep mode. In sleep mode, all gate drivers are disabled, all external MOSFETs are disabled, the
charge pump is disabled, and the DVDD regulator is disabled. The tSLEEP time must elapse after a falling edge on
the ENABLE pin before the device goes to the sleep mode. The device goes from the sleep mode automatically
if the ENABLE pin is pulled high. The tWAKE time must elapse before the device is ready for inputs.
In sleep mode and when VVM < VUVLO, all external MOSFETs are disabled. The high-side gate pins, GHx, are
pulled to the SHx pin by an internal resistor and the low-side gate pins, GLx, are pulled to the PGND pin by an
internal resistor.
NOTE
During power up and power down of the device through the ENABLE pin, the nFAULT pin
is held low as the internal regulators are enabled or disabled. After the regulators have
enabled or disabled, the nFAULT pin is automatically released. The duration that the
nFAULT pin is low does not exceed the tSLEEP or tWAKE time.
7.4.1.2 Operating Mode
When the ENABLE pin is high or left floating and VVM > VUVLO, the device goes to the operating mode. The tWAKE
time must elapse before the device is ready for inputs. In this mode the charge pump, low-side gate regulator,
and DVDD regulator are active. The hardware inputs (IDRIVE and VDS) are latched during the wake-up time
(tWAKE). Any further change to these pins is ignored unless a power-up cycle or an ENABLE pin transition after
sleep mode occurs.
7.4.1.3 Fault Reset (ENABLE Reset Pulse)
In the case of device-latched faults, the DRV8306 device goes to driver Hi-Z state to help protect the external
power MOSFETs and system.
When the fault condition is removed the device can go back to the operating state by issuing a result pulse to the
ENABLE pin on either interface variant. The ENABLE reset pulse (tRST) consists of a high-to-low-to-high
transition on the ENABLE pin. The low period of the sequence should fall with the tRST time window or else the
device will begin the complete shutdown sequence. The reset pulse has no effect on any of the regulators,
device settings, or other functional blocks

8 Application and Implementation
NOTE
Information in the following applications sections is not part of the TI component
specification, and TI does not warrant its accuracy or completeness. TI’s customers are
responsible for determining suitability of components for their purposes. Customers should
validate and test their design implementation to confirm system functionality.
8.1 Application Information
The DRV8306 device is primarily used in three-phase brushless DC motor-control applications. The design
procedures in the Typical Application section highlight how to use and configure the DRV8306 device.
8.1.1 Hall Sensor Configuration and Connection
The combinations of Hall sensor connections in this section are common connections.
8.1.1.1 Typical Configuration
The Hall sensor inputs on the DRV8306 device can interface with a variety of Hall sensors. Typically, a Hall
element is used, which outputs a differential signal on the order of 100 mV. To use this type of sensor, the DVDD
regulator can be used to power the Hall sensor. Figure 26 shows the connections.

Figure 26. Typical Hall Sensor Configuration
Because the amplitude of the Hall-sensor output signal is very low, capacitors are often placed across the Hall
inputs to help reject noise coupled from the motor. Capacitors with a value of 1 nF to 100 nF are typically used.
8.1.1.2 Open Drain Configuration
Some motors use digital Hall sensors with open-drain outputs. These sensors can also be used with the
DRV8306 device, with the addition of a few resistors as shown in Figure 27.

SLVSE38A – APRIL 2018 – REVISED JULY 2018
Application Information (continued)
The negative (HNx) inputs are biased to DVDD / 2 by a pair of resistors between the DVDD pin and ground. For
open-collector Hall sensors, an additional pullup resistor to the VREG pin is required on the positive (HPx) input.
Again, the DVDD output can usually be used to supply power to the Hall sensors.
8.1.1.3 Series Configuration
Hall elements are also connected in series or parallel depending upon the Hall sensor current/voltage
requirement. Figure 28 shows the series connection of Hall sensors powered via the DRV8306 internal LDO
(DVDD). This configuration is used if the current requirement per Hall sensor is high (>10 mA)

Application Information (continued)
8.1.1.4 Parallel Configuration
Figure 29 shows the parallel connection of Hall sensors which is powered by the DVDD. This configuration can
be used if the current requirement per Hall sensor is low ( Qg × ƒPWM
where
•
•
•
ƒPWM is the maximum desired PWM switching frequency.
IVCP is the charge pump capacity, which depends on the VM pin voltage.
The multiplier based on the commutation control method, may vary based on implementation.
(3)
8.2.1.2.1.1 Example
If a system at VVM = 8 V (IVCP = 15 mA) uses a maximum PWM switching frequency of 45 kHz, then the chargepump can support MOSFETs using trapezoidal commutation with a Qg < 333 nC. When the VM voltage (VVM) is
8 V, the maximum DRV8306 gate drive voltage (VGSH) is 7.3 V. Therefore, at 7.3-V gate drive, the target FET
(part number CSD18514Q5A) only has a gate charge of approximately 22 nC. Therefore, with this FET, the
system can have an adequate margin.
8.2.1.2.2 IDRIVE Configuration
The gate drive current strength, IDRIVE, is selected based on the gate-to-drain charge of the external MOSFETs
and the target rise and fall times at the outputs. If IDRIVE is selected to be too low for a given MOSFET, then the
MOSFET may not turn on completely within the tDRIVE time and a gate drive fault may be asserted. Additionally,
slow rise and fall times will lead to higher switching power losses. TI recommends adjusting these values in the
system with the required external MOSFETs and motor to determine the best possible setting for any application.
The IDRIVEP and IDRIVEN current for both the low-side and high-side MOSFETs are selected simultaneously on the
IDRIVE pin.
For MOSFETs with a known gate-to-drain charge Qgd, desired rise time (tr), and a desired fall time (tf), use
Equation 4 and Equation 5 to calculate the value of IDRIVEP and IDRIVEN (respectively).

8.2.1.2.2.1 Example

selected as 45-mA source.
Use Equation 8 and Equation 9 to calculate the value of IDRIVEN1 and IDRIVEN2 (respectively) for a gate to drain
charge of 5 nC and a fall time from 50 to 150 ns.

Select a value for IDRIVEN that is between 33.33 mA and 100 mA. For this example, the value of IDRIVEN was
selected as 90-mA sink.
8.2.1.2.3 VDS Overcurrent Monitor Configuration
The VDS monitors are configured based on the worst-case motor current and the RDS(on) of the external
MOSFETs as shown in Equation 10.
VDS _ OCP ! Imax u RDS(on)max
(10)
8.2.1.2.3.1 Example
The goal of this example is to set the VDS monitor to trip at a current greater than 50 A. According to the
CSD18514Q5A 40 V N-Channel NexFET™ Power MOSFET data sheet, the RDS(on) value is 1.8 times higher at
175°C, and the maximum RDS(on) value at a VGS of 10 V is 4.9 mΩ. From these values, the approximate worstcase value of RDS(on) is 1.8 × 4.9 mΩ = 8.82 mΩ.
Using Equation 10 with a value of 8.82 mΩ for RDS(on) and a worst-case motor current of 50 A, Equation 11
shows the calculated the value of the VDS monitors.
VDS _ OCP ! 50 A u 8.82 m:
VDS _ OCP ! 0.441 V
(11)
For this example, the value of VDS_OCP was selected as 0.51 V.
The deglitch time for the VDS overcurrent monitor is fixed at 4 µs.

9 Power Supply Recommendations
The DRV8306 device is designed to operate from an input voltage supply (VM) range from 6 V to 38 V. A 0.1-µF
ceramic capacitor rated for VM must be placed as close to the device as possible. In addition, a bulk capacitor
must be included on the VM pin but can be shared with the bulk bypass capacitance for the external power
MOSFETs. Additional bulk capacitance is required to bypass the external half-bridge MOSFETs and should be
sized according to the application requirements.
9.1 Bulk Capacitance Sizing
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 depends on a variety of factors including:
• The highest current required by the motor system
• The power supply's type, capacitance, and ability to source current
• The amount of parasitic inductance between the power supply and motor system
• The acceptable supply voltage ripple
• Type of motor (brushed DC, brushless DC, stepper)
• The motor startup and braking methods
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 provides a recommended minimum value, but system level testing is required to determine the
appropriate sized bulk capacitor.

10 Layout
10.1 Layout Guidelines
Bypass the VM pin to the PGND pin using a low-ESR ceramic bypass capacitor with a recommended value of
0.1 µF. Place this capacitor as close to the VM pin as possible with a thick trace or ground plane connected to
the PGND pin. Additionally, bypass the VM pin using a bulk capacitor rated for VM. This component can be
electrolytic. This capacitance must be at least 10 µF.
Additional bulk capacitance is required to bypass the high current path on the external MOSFETs. This bulk
capacitance should be placed such that it minimizes the length of any high current paths through the external
MOSFETs. The connecting metal traces should be as wide as possible, with numerous vias connecting PCB
layers. These practices minimize inductance and let the bulk capacitor deliver high current.
Place a low-ESR ceramic capacitor between the CPL and CPH pins. This capacitor should be 47 nF, rated for
VM, and be of type X5R or X7R. Additionally, place a low-ESR ceramic capacitor between the VCP and VM pins.
This capacitor should be 1 µF, rated for 16 V, and be of type X5R or X7R.
Bypass the DVDD pin to the AGND pin with a 1-µF low-ESR ceramic capacitor rated for 6.3 V and of type X5R
or X7R. Place this capacitor as close to the pin as possible and minimize the path from the capacitor to the
AGND pin.
The VDRAIN pin can be shorted directly to the VM pin. However, if a significant distance is between the device
and the external MOSFETs, use a dedicated trace to connect to the common point of the drains of the high-side
external MOSFETs. Do not connect the SLx pins directly to PGND. Instead, use dedicated traces to connect
these pins to the sources of the low-side external MOSFETs. These recommendations offer more accurate VDS
sensing of the external MOSFETs for overcurrent detection.
Minimize the loop length for the high-side and low-side gate drivers. The high-side loop is from the GHx pin of
the device to the high-side power MOSFET gate, then follows the high-side MOSFET source back to the SHx
pin. The low-side loop is from the GLx pin of the device to the low-side power MOSFET gate, then follows the
low-side MOSFET source back to the PGND pin.

11.6 Electrostatic Discharge Caution
This integrated circuit can be damaged by ESD. Texas Instruments recommends that all integrated circuits be handled with
appropriate precautions. Failure to observe proper handling and installation procedures can cause damage.
ESD damage can range from subtle performance degradation to complete device failure. Precision integrated circuits may be more
susceptible to damage because very small parametric changes could cause the device not to meet its published specifications.
