DRV8601ZQVEVM ERM/LRA Driver Evaluation Module
The DRV8601 ERM/LRA driver evaluation module is a complete, low-power and ultra-fast turn-on driver
for Eccentric Rotating Mass (ERM) and Linear Resonant Actuator (LRA) types of haptic actuators. All
components and the evaluation module are Pb-free. The evaluation module (EVM) consists of a
DRV8601ZQV device and all necessary components to evaluate it.

Operation
2.1.1
www.ti.com
Initial Configuration
The DRV8601ZQVEVM can be operated in two configurations. For a detailed description of each
configuration, see the DRV8601ZQV data sheet.
1. Pseudo-Differential Feedback with Internal Reference - used when VDD is equal to the maximum IN
voltage
2. Differential Feedback with External Reference - used when VDD is not equal to the maximun IN voltage
Table 1 describes how to modify the DRV8601ZQVEVM for the two configurations. Note that the voltages
listed (IN, REFIN, and VDD) must be used for proper operation. If alternate voltages are required, see the
data sheet to select different passive components.

Choose C4 to set the corner frequency according to the equation f3dB = 1 / (2 × π × R4 x C4). For configuration two, choose
R5 = R4 and C5 = C4.
Power and Ground
For all three configurations:
1. Set the voltage of an external power supply between 2.5 V and 5.5 V and turn it OFF.
2. Attach the ground connection of the power supply to the GND header pin of the EVM, and then
connect the positive supply to the VDD header pin. Verify that the connections are made to the correct
header pins.

Inputs and Outputs
2.1.3.1
1.
2.
3.
Vibration Input
Make sure that the signal source is set to the minimum level.
Connect the signal source to the IN header pin on the EVM.
Connect the actuator (ERM or LRA) between OUT+ and OUT–.
2.1.3.2
Enable Settings
The DRV8601ZQV has an active high enable pin EN. A high value on this pin places the device in the
operating mode, and a low value on this pin places it in the shutdown mode. Press and hold pushbutton
S1 to place the DRV8601ZQVEVM in the shutdown mode. Release pushbutton S1 to restart normal
operation.
2.1.3.3
Gain Settings
DC gain of the device is given by 2×R4/R1 for the pseudo-differential configurations, and R4/R1 for the
differential configuration. R5, when used, must be well matched with R4 for proper performance. The
DRV8601ZQVEVM is pre-configured for a pseudo-differential gain of 4 V/V and a differential gain of 2V/V.
2.2
Power Up
1. Verify the correct connections as described in Sections 2.1.
2. Verify the voltage setting of the power supply is between 2.5 V and 5.5 V, and turn on the power
supply. Proper operation of the EVM begins.
3. Adjust the audio signal source as needed.

FOR ANY INDIRECT, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES.
TI currently deals with a variety of customers for products, and therefore our arrangement with the user is not exclusive.
TI assumes no liability for applications assistance, customer product design, software performance, or infringement of
patents or services described herein.
Please read the User’s Guide and, specifically, the Warnings and Restrictions notice in the User’s Guide prior to handling the
product. This notice contains important safety information about temperatures and voltages. For additional information on TI’s
environmental and/or safety programs, please contact the TI application engineer or visit www.ti.com/esh.

combination in which such TI products or services might be or are used.
FCC Warning
This evaluation board/kit is intended for use for ENGINEERING DEVELOPMENT, DEMONSTRATION, OR EVALUATION
PURPOSES ONLY and is not considered by TI to be a finished end-product fit for general consumer use. It generates, uses, and
can radiate radio frequency energy and has not been tested for compliance with the limits of computing devices pursuant to part 15
of FCC rules, which are designed to provide reasonable protection against radio frequency interference. Operation of this
equipment in other environments may cause interference with radio communications, in which case the user at his own expense
will be required to take whatever measures may be required to correct this interference.
EVM Warnings and Restrictions
It is important to operate this EVM within the input voltage range of 2.5 V to 5 V and the output voltage range of 0 V to 5.5 V .
Exceeding the specified input range may cause unexpected operation and/or irreversible damage to the EVM. If there are
questions concerning the input range, please contact a TI field representative prior to connecting the input power.
Applying loads outside of the specified output range may result in unintended operation and/or possible permanent damage to the
EVM. Please consult the EVM User's Guide prior to connecting any load to the EVM output. If there is uncertainty as to the load
specification, please contact a TI field representative.
During normal operation, some circuit components may have case temperatures greater than 60°C. The EVM is designed to
operate properly with certain components above 60°C as long as the input and output ranges are maintained. These components
include but are not limited to linear regulators, switching transistors, pass transistors, and current sense resistors. These types of
devices can be identified using the EVM schematic located in the EVM User's Guide. When placing measurement probes near
these devices during operation, please be aware that these devices may be very warm to the touch.
