DRV8328 4.5 to 60 V Three-phase BLDC Gate Driver
1 Features
3 Description
•
The DRV8328 family of devices is an integrated
gate driver for three-phase applications. The devices
provide three half-bridge gate drivers, each capable
of driving high-side and low-side N-channel power
MOSFETs. The device generates the correct gate
drive voltages using an internal charge pump and
enhances the high-side MOSFETs using a bootstrap
circuit. A trickle charge pump is included to support
100% duty cycle. The Gate Drive architecture
supports peak gate drive currents up to 1-A source
and 2-A sink. The DRV8328 can operate from a single
power supply and supports a wide input supply range
of 4.5 to 60 V.

The 6x and 3x PWM modes allow for simple
interfacing to controller circuits. The device has
integrated accurate 3.3-V LDO that can be used
to power external controller and can be used as
reference for CSA. The configuration settings for the
device are configurable through hardware (H/W) pins.
A low-power sleep mode is provided to achieve
low quiescent current by shutting down most of
the internal circuitry. Internal protection functions
are provided for undervoltage lockout, GVDD fault,
MOSFET overcurrent, MOSFET short circuit, and
overtemperature. Fault conditions are indicated on
nFAULT pin.

SLVSFF3C – DECEMBER 2021 – REVISED OCTOBER 2022
8 Detailed Description
8.1 Overview
The DRV8328 family of devices is an integrated three-phase gate driver supporting an input voltage range of
4.5-V to 60-V. These devices decrease system component count, cost, and complexity by integrating three
independent half-bridge gate drivers, trickle charge pump, and a charge pump with linear regulator for the supply
voltages of the high-side and low-side gate drivers. DRV8328 also integrates an accurate low voltage regulator
(AVDD) capable of supporting 3.3 V at 80 mA output. A hardware interface allows for simple configuration of the
motor driver and control of the motor.
The gate drivers support external N-channel high-side and low-side power MOSFETs and can drive up to 1-A
source, 2-A sink peak gate drive currents with a 30-mA average output current. A bootstrap circuit with capacitor
generates the supply voltage of the high-side gate drive and a trickle charge pump is employed to support 100%
duty cycle. The supply voltage of the low-side gate driver is generated using a charge pump with linear regulator
GVDD from the PVDD power supply that regulates to 12 V.
In addition to the high level of device integration, the DRV8328 family of devices provides a wide range of
integrated protection features. These features include power supply undervoltage lockout (PVDDUV), regulator
undervoltage lockout (GVDDUV), Bootstrap Voltage undervoltage lockout (BSTUV), VDS overcurrent monitoring
(OCP), Sense resistor overcurrent monitoring (SEN_OCP) and overtemperature shutdown (TSD). Fault events
are indicated by the nFAULT pin.
The DRV8328 is available in 0.4-mm pitch, 5 × 4 mm 36-pin QFN surface-mount packages.

8.3.1 Three BLDC Gate Drivers
The DRV8328 family of devices integrates three half-bridge gate drivers, each capable of driving high-side and
low-side N-channel power MOSFETs. A charge pump is used to generate the GVDD to supply the correct gate
bias voltage across a wide operating voltage range. The low side gate outputs are driven directly from GVDD,
while the high side gate outputs are driven using a bootstrap circuit with an integrated diode. An internal trickle
charge pump provides support for 100% duty cycle operation. The half-bridge gate drivers can be used in
combination to drive a three-phase motor or separately to drive other types of loads.
8.3.1.1 PWM Control Modes
The DRV8328 provides two different PWM control modes to support various commutation and control methods.
The PWM control modes are supported in different device variants (see Table 5-1)
8.3.1.1.1 6x PWM Mode
In 6x PWM mode, each half-bridge supports three output states: low, high, or high-impedance (Hi-Z). The
corresponding INHx and INLx signals control the output state as listed in Table 8-2.

In 3x PWM mode, the INHx pin controls each half-bridge and supports two output states: low or high. The INLx
pin is used to put the half bridge in the Hi-Z state. If the Hi-Z state is not required, tie all INLx pins to logic high.

8.3.1.2 Device Hardware Interface
The DRV8328 utilize a hardware interface to configure different device settings. These hardware configurable
inputs are DT and VDSLVL. General fault information is reported on the nFAULT pin.
•
•
The DT pin configures the gate drive dead time. The dead time can adjusted by changing the resistor value
from the DT pin to GND.
The VDSLVL pin configures the voltage threshold of the VDS overcurrent monitors. The voltage applied to the
VDSLVL pin is directly used as reference for the VDS comparator
For more information on the hardware interface, see Section 8.3.3.

8.3.1.3 Gate Drive Architecture
The gate driver device use a complimentary, push-pull topology for both the high-side and low-side drivers. This
topology allows for both a strong pullup and pulldown of the external MOSFET gates. The low side gate drivers
are supplied directly from the GVDD regulator supply. The operating mode of GVDD depends on the voltage of
PVDD, when the PVDD >18V, the GVDD voltage is generated by an LDO, whereas PVDD < 18V, the GVDD
voltage is generated by a charge pump. For the high-side gate drivers a bootstrap diode and capacitor are
used to generate the floating high-side gate voltage supply. The bootstrap diode is integrated and an external
bootstrap capacitor is used between BSTx and SHx pins. To support 100% duty cycle control, a trickle charge
pump is integrated into the device. The trickle charge pump is connected to the BSTx node to prevent voltage
drop due to the leakage currents of the driver and external MOSFET.
The high-side gate driver has a semi-active pulldown and low side gate has passive pulldown to help prevent the
external MOSFET from turning ON during sleep state or when the power supply is disconnected.

8.3.1.3.1 Propagation Delay
The propagation delay time (tpd) is measured as the time between an input logic edge to a detected output
change. This time has two parts consisting of the digital propagation delay, and the delay through the analog
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.
8.3.1.3.2 Deadtime and Cross-Conduction Prevention
In the DRV8328, high- and low-side inputs operate independently, with an exception to prevent cross conduction
when the high and low side of the same half-bridge are turned ON at same time. The device turns OFF high- and
low- side output to prevent shoot through when high- and low-side inputs are logic high at same time.
The DRV8328 also provides dead time insertion to prevent both external MOSFETs of each half-bridge from
switching on at the same time. In devices with a DT pin, deadtime can be linearly adjusted between 100 ns and
2000 ns by connecting s resistor between DT and ground. When the DT pin is left floating or connected to GND,
a fixed deadtime of 55 ns (typical value) is inserted. The value of the resistor can be calculated using following
equation.

8.3.2 AVDD Linear Voltage Regulator
A 3.3-V, 80-mA linear regulator is available for use by external circuitry. The output of the LDO is fixed to 3.3-V.
This regulator can provide the supply voltage for a low-power MCU or other circuitry with low supply current
needs. The output of the AVDD regulator should be bypassed near the AVDD pin with a X5R or X7R, 1-µF, 6.3-V

8.3.4 Gate Driver Shutdown Sequence (DRVOFF)
When DRVOFF is driven high, the gate driver goes into shutdown, overriding signals on inputs pins INHx and
INLx. DRVOFF bypasses the digital control logic inside the device, and is connected directly to the gate driver
output (see Figure 8-8). This pin provides a mechanism for externally monitored faults to disable the gate driver
by directly bypassing an external controller or the internal control logic. When the DRV8328 detects that the
DRVOFF pin is driven high, it disables the gate driver and puts it into pulldown mode (see Figure 8-9). The
gate driver shutdown sequence proceeds as shown in Figure 8-9. When the gate driver initiates the shutdown
sequence, the active driver pulldown is applied at ISINK current for the tSD_SINK_DIG time, after which the gate
driver moves to passive pulldown mode.

8.3.5.1 PVDD Supply Undervoltage Lockout (PVDD_UV)
If at any time the power supply voltage on the PVDD pin falls below the VPVDD_UV threshold for longer than the
tPVDD_UV_DG time, the device detects a PVDD undervoltage event. After detecting the undervoltage condition, the
gate driver is disabled, the charge pump is disabled, the internal digital logic is disabled, and the nFAULT pin is
driven low. Normal operation starts again (the gate driver becomes operable and the nFAULT pin is released)
when the PVDD pin rises above VPVDD_UV.
8.3.5.2 AVDD Power on Reset (AVDD_POR)
If at any time the supply voltage on the AVDD pin falls below the VAVDD_POR threshold for longer than the
tAVDD_POR_DG time, the device enters an inactive state, disabling the gate driver, the charge pump, and the
internal digital logic, and nFAULT is driven low. Normal operation (digital logic operational) requires nSLEEP to
be asserted high and AVDD to exceed VAVDD_POR level.
8.3.5.3 GVDD Undervoltage Lockout (GVDD_UV)
If at any time the voltage on the GVDD pin falls lower than the VGVDD_UV threshold voltage for longer than the
tGVDD_UV_DG time, the device detects a GVDD undervoltage event. After detecting the GVDD_UV undervoltage
event, all of the gate driver outputs are driven low to disable the external MOSFETs, the charge pump is disabled
and nFAULT pin is driven low. After the GVDD_UV condition is cleared, the fault state remains latched and can
be cleared through an nSLEEP pin reset pulse (tRST)
Note
After the GVDD_UV fault is cleared through an nSLEEP pin reset pulse, the nFAULT pin is held low
until the GVDD capacitor is refreshed by the charge pump. After the GVDD capacitor is charged, the
nFAULT pin is automatically released. The duration that the nFAULT pin is low after the fault is cleared
will not exceed tWAKE time.

8.3.5.4 BST Undervoltage Lockout (BST_UV)
If at any time the voltage across BSTx and SHx pins falls lower than the VBST_UV threshold voltage for longer
than the tBST_UV_DG time, the device detects a BST undervoltage event. Afer detecting the BST_UV event, all of
the gate driver outputs are driven low to disable the external MOSFETs, and nFAULT pin is driven low. After the
BST_UV condition is cleared, the fault state remains latched and can be cleared through an nSLEEP pin reset
pulse (tRST).
8.3.5.5 MOSFET VDS Overcurrent Protection (VDS_OCP)
The device has adjustable VDS voltage monitors to detect overcurrent or short-circuit conditions on the external
power MOSFETs. A MOSFET overcurrent event is sensed by monitoring the VDS voltage drop across the
external MOSFET RDS(on). The high-side VDS monitors measure between the PVDD and SHx pins and the lowside VDS monitors measure between the SHx and LSS pins. If the voltage across external MOSFET exceeds
the VDS_LVL threshold for longer than the tDS_DG deglitch time, a VDS_OCP event is recognized. Afer detecting
the VDS overcurrent event, all of the gate driver outputs are driven low to disable the external MOSFETs and
nFAULT pin is driven low. The VDS threshold can be set between 0.1 V to 2.5 V by applying a voltage on the
VDSLVL pin. VDS OCP can be disabled by connecting VDSLVL to GVDD through a 100 kΩ resistor. After the
VDS_OCP condition is cleared, the fault state remains latched and can be cleared through the nSLEEP pin reset
pulse (tRST).

8.3.5.6 VSENSE Overcurrent Protection (SEN_OCP)
Overcurrent is also monitored by sensing the voltage drop across the external current sense resistor between
the LSS and GND pins. If at any time the voltage on the LSS input exceeds the VSEN_OCP threshold for longer
than the tDS_DEG deglitch time, a SEN_OCP event is recognized. Afer detecting the SEN_OCP overcurrent
event, all of the gate driver outputs are driven low to disable the external MOSFETs and the nFAULT pin is
driven low. The VSENSE threshold is fixed at 0.5 V and deglitch time is fixed to 3 µs. After the SEN_OCP
condition is cleared, the fault state remains latched and can be cleared through an nSLEEP pin reset pulse
(tRST). SEN_OCP can be disabled by connecting VDSLVL to GVDD through a 100 kΩ resistor.
8.3.5.7 Thermal Shutdown (OTSD)
If the die temperature exceeds the trip point of the thermal shutdown limit (TOTSD), an OTSD event is recognized.
After detecting the OTSD overtemperature event, all of the gate driver outputs are driven low to disable the
external MOSFETs, charge pump is disabled and nFAULT pin is driven low. After OTSD condition is cleared, the
fault state remains latched and can be cleared through an nSLEEP pin reset pulse (tRST)

8.4 Device Functional Modes
8.4.1 Gate Driver Functional Modes
8.4.1.1 Sleep Mode
The nSLEEP pin manages the state of the DRV8328. When the nSLEEP 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
GVDD regulator is disabled and the AVDD regulator is disabled. The tSLEEP time must elapse after a falling edge
on the nSLEEP pin before the device goes to sleep mode. The device comes out of sleep mode automatically if
the nSLEEP pin is pulled high. The tWAKE time must elapse before the device is ready for inputs.
Note
During power up and power down of the device through the nSLEEP pin, the nFAULT pin is held
low as the internal regulators are not active. After the regulators have been active, the nFAULT pin is
automatically released. The duration that the nFAULT pin is low does not exceed the tSLEEP or tWAKE
time.
8.4.1.2 Operating Mode
When the nSLEEP pin is high and the VPVDD voltage is greater than the VPVDD_UV voltage, the device goes
to operating mode. The tWAKE time must elapse before the device is ready for inputs. In this mode the GVDD
regulator and AVDD regulator are active.
8.4.1.3 Fault Reset (nSLEEP Reset Pulse)
In the case of device latched faults, the DRV8328 goes into a partial shutdown state to help protect the external
power MOSFETs and system.
When the fault condition clears, the device can be re-enabled by issuing a reset pulse to the nSLEEP pin. The
nSLEEP reset pulse (tRST) consists of a high-to-low-to-high transition on the nSLEEP pin. The reset pulse has
no effect on any of the regulators, device settings, or other functional blocks as long as the low period of the
sequence falls within the t RST time window. If the pulse is longer than the tRST time window, the device will start a
complete shutdown sequence.
Note
If the user wants to put the device into sleep state after latched fault event, the inputs INHx and INLx
needs to be pulled low prior to driving the nSLEEP pin. If the inputs INHx and INLx are not driven low,
then the fault is reset after nSLEEP is driven low for the tRST time and there can be pulses on gate
driver outputs GHx and GLx prior to device entering sleep. The duration of pulses on GHx and GLx
can be of duration tSLEEP if INHx and INLx are not pulled low.

9.2.1.1.1 Motor Voltage
Brushless-DC motors are typically rated for a certain voltage (for example 18-V, 24-V or 36-V). The DRV8328
allows for a range of possible operating voltages from 4.5-V to 60-V.
9.2.1.1.2 Bootstrap Capacitor and GVDD Capacitor Selection
The bootstrap capacitor must be sized to maintain the bootstrap voltage above the undervoltage lockout for
normal operation. Equation 3 calculates the maximum allowable voltage drop across the bootstrap capacitor:
¿8$56: = 8)8&& F 8$116& F 8$5678
(3)
=12 V – 0.85 V – 4.45 V = 6.7 V
where
• VGVDD is the supply voltage of the gate drive
• VBOOTD is the forward voltage drop of the bootstrap diode
• VBSTUV is the threshold of the bootstrap undervoltage lockout
In this example the allowed voltage drop across bootstrap capacitor is 6.7 V. It is generally recommended that
ripple voltage on both the bootstrap capacitor and GVDD capacitor should be minimized as much as possible.
Many of commercial, industrial, and automotive applications use ripple value between 0.5 V to 1 V.
The total charge needed per switching cycle can be estimated with Equation 4:
QTOT = QG +
ILBS_TRAN
fSW
(4)
=54 nC + 115 μA/20 kHz = 54 nC + 5.8 nC = 59.8nC
where
• QG is the total MOSFET gate charge
• ILBS_TRAN is the bootstrap pin leakage current
• fSW is the is the PWM frequency
The minimum bootstrap capacitor can then be estimated as below assuming 1V of ΔVBSTx:

= 59.8 nC / 1 V = 59.8 nF
The calculated value of minimum bootstrap capacitor is 59.8 nF. It should be noted that, this value of
capacitance is needed at full bias voltage. In practice, the value of the bootstrap capacitor must be greater
than calculated value to allow for situations where the power stage may skip pulse due to various transient
conditions. It is recommended to use a 100 nF bootstrap capacitor in this example. It is also recommenced to
include enough margin and place the bootstrap capacitor as close to the BSTx and SHx pins as possible.
%)8&& R 10 × %$56:
(6)
= 10*100 nF= 1 μF
For this example application, choose a 1-µF CGVDD capacitor. Choose a capacitor with a voltage rating at
least twice the maximum voltage that it will be exposed to because most ceramic capacitors lose significant
capacitance when biased. This value also improves the long-term reliability of the system.
Note
For higher power system requiring 100% duty cycle support for longer duration it is recommended to
use CBSTx of ≥1μF and CGVDD of ≥10 μF.
9.2.1.1.3 Gate Drive Current
Selecting an appropriate gate drive current is essential when turning on or off power MOSFETs gates to
switch motor current. The amount of gate drive current and input capacitance of the MOSFETs determines the
drain-to-source voltage slew rate (VDS). Gate drive current can be sourced from GVDD into the MOSFET gate
(ISOURCE) or sunk from the MOSFET gate into SHx or LSS (ISINK).
Using too high of a gate drive current can turn on MOSFETs too quickly which may cause excessive ringing,
dV/dt coupling, or cross-conduction from switching large amounts of current. If parasitic inductances and
capacitances exist in the system, voltage spiking or ringing may occur which can damage the MOSFETs or
DRV8328 device.

On the other hand, using too low of a gate drive current causes long VDS slew rates. Turning on the MOSFETs

9.2.1.1.4 Gate Resistor Selection
The slew rate of the SHx connection will be dependent on the rate at which the gate of the external MOSFETs is
controlled. The pull-up/pull-down strength of the DRV8328 is fixed internally, hence the slew rate of gate voltage
can be controlled with an external series gate resistor. In some applications, the gate charge of the MOSFET,
which is the load on gate driver device, is significantly larger than the gate driver peak output current capability.
In such applications, external gate resistors can limit the peak output current of the gate driver. External gate
resistors are also used to dampen ringing and noise.
The specific parameters of the MOSFET, system voltage, and board parasitics will all affect the final SHx slew
rate, so generally selecting an optimal value or configuration of external gate resistor is an iterative process.
To lower the gate drive current, a series resistor RGATE can be placed on the gate drive outputs to control the
current for the source and sink current paths. A single gate resistor will have the same gate path for source and
sink gate current, so larger RGATE values will yield similar SHx slew rates. Note that gate drive current varies by

Typically, it is recommended to have the sink current be twice the source current to implement a strong pulldown
from gate to the source to ensure the MOSFET stays off while the opposite FET is switching. This can be
implemented discretely by providing a separate path through a resistor for the source and sink currents by
placing a diode and sink resistor (RSINK) in parallel to the source resistor (RSOURCE). Using the same value of
source and sink resistors results in half the equivalent resistance for the sink path. This yields twice the gate
drive sink current compared to the source current, and SHx will slew twice as fast when turning off the MOSFET.

9.2.1.1.5 System Considerations in High Power Designs
Higher power system designs can require design and application considerations that are not regarded in lower
power system designs. It is important to combat the volatile nature of higher power systems by implementing
troubleshooting guidelines, external components and circuits, driver product features, or layout techniques. For
more information, please visit the System Design Considerations for High-Power Motor Driver Applications
application note.
9.2.1.1.5.1 Capacitor Voltage Ratings
Use capacitors with voltage ratings that are 2x the supply voltage (PVDD, GVDD, AVDD, etc). Capacitors can
experience up to half the rated capacitance due to poor DC voltage rating performance.
For example, since the bootstrap voltage is around 12 to 13-V with respect to SHx (BSTx-SHx) then the
BSTx-SHx capacitor should be rated for 25-V or greater.
9.2.1.1.5.2 External Power Stage Components
External components in the power stage are not required by design but are helpful in suppressing transients,
managing inductor coil energy, mitigating supply pumping, dampening phase ringing, or providing strong gate-tosource pulldown paths. These components are used for system tuning and debuggability so the BLDC motor
system is robust while avoiding damage to the DRV8328 device or external MOSFETs.
Figure 9-5 shows examples of power stage components that can be optimally placed in the design.

9.2.1.1.5.3 Parallel MOSFET Configuration
If higher MOSFET continuous drain current ratings are required for the motor, parallel MOSFETs can be used for
higher current capability. However, this requires special schematic and layout design requirements to switch both
MOSFETs simultaneously because one MOSFET may turn on faster than the other due to process variation.
It is recommended to place the MOSFETs close together with a common gate signal that splits as close as
possible to the MOSFETs gates. If gate resistance is required, calculate the equivalent resistance required for
the equivalently rated MOSFET, and place the gate resistors as close as possible to the MOSFET’s gate input to
dampen any coupling into the gate driver.
For more information, please visit the Driving Parallel MOSFETs application brief.
9.2.1.1.6 Dead Time Resistor Selection
Dead time insertion is available in the DRV8328 via a resistor (RDT) from the DT pin to ground as shown in
Figure 9-6. The ranges of dead time in the DRV8328 is 100 ns to 2000 ns when RDT is tied to GND from the DT
pin. A linear interpolation of the resistance value is used to set the appropriate dead time.
RDT
DT
Figure 9-6. Dead time resistor
Dead time (in nanoseconds) can be calculated from the dead time resistor calculation in Equation 1.
Dead time can also be implemented from the PWM inputs generated by an MCU. If dead time is inserted at the
PWM inputs and the DRV8328, then the driver output PWM dead time is the larger of the two dead times. For
instance, if 200 ns dead time is inserted at the MCU inputs and 50 ns dead time is inserted in the DRV8328 via
the DT pin, then the output driver PWM dead time will be 200 ns.
9.2.1.1.7 VDSLVL Selection
VDSLVL is an analog voltage used to directly set the VDS overcurrent threshold for overcurrent protection. It can
be sourced directly from an analog voltage source (such as a digital-to-analog converter) or divided down from a
voltage rail (such as a resistor divider from AVDD) as shown in Figure 9-7.

Equation 9 and Equation 10 can be used to set the required VDSLVL voltage using a resistor divider from a

(10)
VVDSLVL = VDSLVL voltage
IOCP = VDS overcurrent limit
RDS,on = MOSFET on-resistance
VIN = voltage source for VDSLVL voltage divider
R1/R2 = resistor ratio for setting VDSLVL
For example, if a resistor divider from AVDD is used to set an overcurrent trip threshold of 30-A and the
MOSFET RDS(ON) = 10mΩ, then VDSLVL = 0.3V.
In some applications, there will be a difference between battery voltage (VBAT) to directly drive motor power
and PVDD voltage to power the DRV8328. Because high-side VDS monitoring is referenced from PVDD-SHx,
VDSLVL needs to be selected appropriately to accommodate for the difference in VBAT and PVDD.
Equation 11 helps select an appropriate VDSLVL if there is a difference between PVDD and VDSLVL:
VDSLVL = VBAT − PVDD + IOC*RDS ON
(11)
For instance, if VBAT = 24.0 V, PVDD = 23.3 V, Rdson = 10-mΩ, and I_OC = 30-A, then VDSLVL should equal
1.0V to detect a 30-A overcurrent event across the high-side FET and a 100-A overcurrent event across the
low-side FET.
9.2.1.1.8 AVDD Power Losses
An integrated LDO
in the DRV8328C and DRV8328D
can supply 3.3-V (up to 80-mA) as power rails for external ICs or supply the pullup voltages for resistors and
switches. The power loss from AVDD with respect to PVDD, AVDD voltage, and AVDD current is PAVDD = (VPVDD
- VAVDD) x IAVDD.
Higher power losses occur due larger dropout from PVDD to 3.3 V or increased AVDD load current.
9.2.1.1.9 Power Dissipation and Junction Temperature Losses
To calculate the junction temperature of the DRV8328 from power losses, use Equation 12. Note that the thermal
resistance θJA depends on PCB configurations such as the ambient temperature, numbers of PCB layers,
copper thickness on top and bottom layers, and the PCB area.

10 Power Supply Recommendations
The DRV8328 family of devices is designed to operate from an input voltage supply (PVDD) range from 4.5
V to 60 V. A 10-µF and 0.1-µF ceramic capacitor rated for PVDD must be placed as close to the device as
possible. In addition, a bulk capacitor must be included on the PVDD 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.
10.1 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.

11 Layout
11.1 Layout Guidelines
Bypass the PVDD 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 PVDD pin as possible with a thick trace or ground plane connected to
the PGND pin. Additionally, bypass the PVDD pin using a bulk capacitor rated for PVDD. 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 470 nF, rated for
PVDD, and be of type X5R or X7R.
The bootstrap capacitors (BSTx-SHx) should be placed closely to device pins to minimize loop inductance for
the gate drive paths.
The dead time resistor (RDT) should be placed as close as possible to the DT pin.
Bypass the AVDD 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.
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.
When designing higher power systems, physics in the PCB layout can cause parasitic inductances,
capacitances, and impedances that deter the performance of the system as shown in Figure 11-1.
Understanding the parasitics that are present in a higher power motor drive system can help designers mitigate
their effects through good PCB layout. For more information, please visit the System Design Considerations for
High-Power Motor Driver Applications and Best Practices for Board Layout of Motor Drivers application notes.

Figure 11-1. Parasitics in the PCB of a BLDC motor driver powerstage
Gate drive traces (BSTx, GHx, SHx, GLx, LSS) should be at least 15-20mil wide and as short as possible to the
MOSFET gates to minimize parasitic inductances and impedances. This helps supply large gate drive currents,
turn MOSFETs on efficiently, and improves VGS and VDS monitoring. If a shunt resistor is used to monitor the
low-side current from LSS to GND, ensure the shunt resistor selected is wide to minimize inductance introduced
at the low-side source LSS.
TI recommends connecting all non-power stage circuitry (including the thermal pad) to GND to reduce parasitic
effects and improve power dissipation from the device. Ensure grounds are connected through net-ties or wide
resistors to reduce voltage offsets and maintain gate driver performance.
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 helps dissipate
the heat that is generated in the device.
To improve thermal performance, maximize the ground area that is connected to the thermal pad ground across
all possible layers of the PCB. Using thick copper pours can lower the junction-to-air thermal resistance and
improve thermal dissipation from the die surface.

11.3 Thermal Considerations
The DRV8328 has thermal shutdown (TSD) to protect against overtemperature. A die temperature in excess of
150°C (minimally) disables the device until the temperature drops to a safe level.
Any tendency of the device to enter thermal shutdown is an indication of excessive power dissipation, insufficient
heatsinking, or too high an ambient temperature.
11.3.1 Power Dissipation
The DRV8328 integrates a variety of circuits that contribute to total power losses. These power losses include
standby power losses, GVDD power losses, and AVDD power losses.
At start-up and fault conditions, this current is much higher than normal running current; remember to take these
peak currents and their duration into consideration.
The maximum amount of power that the device can dissipate depends on ambient temperature and heatsinking.
