7 Detailed Description
7.1 Overview
The DRV8812 is an integrated motor driver solution for a bipolar stepper motor or two brushed DC motors. The
device integrates two NMOS H-bridges, current sense, regulation circuitry, and detailed fault detection. The
DRV8813 can be powered with a supply voltage between 8.2 V and 45 V and is capable of providing an output
current up to 1.6 A full-scale.
A PHASE/ENBL interface allows for simple interfacing to the controller circuit. The winding current control allows
the external controller to adjust the regulated current that is provided to the motor. The current regulation is
highly configurable, with three decay modes of operation. Fast, slow, and mixed decay can be selected
depending on the application requirements.
A low-power sleep mode is included which allows the system to save power when not driving the motor.

7.3 Feature Description
7.3.1 PWM Motor Drivers
The DRV8812 contains two H-bridge motor drivers with current-control PWM circuitry. A block diagram of the
motor control circuitry is shown in Figure 5. A bipolar stepper motor is shown, but the drivers can also drive two
separate DC motors.
Figure 5. Motor Control Circuitry
Note that there are multiple VM motor power supply pins. All VM pins must be connected together to the motor
supply voltage.

7.4 Device Functional Modes
7.4.1 Bridge Control
The xPHASE input pins control the direction of current flow through each H-bridge. The xENBL input pins enable
the H-bridge outputs when active high. Table 1 shows the logic.

7.4.2 Current Regulation
The current through the motor windings is regulated by a fixed-frequency PWM current regulation, or current
chopping. When an H-bridge is enabled, current rises through the winding at a rate dependent on the DC voltage
and inductance of the winding. Once the current hits the current chopping threshold, the bridge disables the
current until the beginning of the next PWM cycle.
For stepping motors, current regulation is normally used at all times, and can changing the current can be used
to microstep the motor. For DC motors, current regulation is used to limit the start-up and stall current of the
motor.
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 xVREF pins, and is scaled by a 2-bit DAC that allows current settings of 100%, 71%, 38% of full-scale,
plus zero.
The full-scale (100%) chopping current is calculated in Equation 1.
VREFX
ICHOP
5 u RISENSE
(1)
Example:
If a 0.5-Ω sense resistor is used and the VREFx pin is 3.3 V, the full-scale (100%) chopping current will be
3.3 V / (5 x 0.5 Ω) = 1.32 A.
Two input pins per H-bridge (xI1 and xI0) are used to scale the current in each bridge as a percentage of the fullscale current set by the VREF input pin and sense resistance. The function of the pins is shown in
Table 2.
Table 2. H-Bridge Pin Functions

1
1
0% (Bridge disabled)
1
0
38%
0
1
71%
0
0
100%
Note that when both xI bits are 1, the H-bridge is disabled and no current flows.
Example:
If a 0.5-Ω sense resistor is used and the VREF pin is 3.3 V, the chopping current will be 1.32 A at the 100%
setting (xI1, xI0 = 00). At the 71% setting (xI1, xI0 = 01) the current will be 1.32 A x 0.71 = 0.937 A, and at
the 38% setting (xI1, xI0 = 10) the current will be 1.32 A x 0.38 = 0.502 A. If (xI1, xI0 = 11) the bridge will be
disabled and no current will flow.

7.4.3 Decay Mode
During PWM current chopping, the H-bridge is enabled to drive current through the motor winding until the PWM
current chopping threshold is reached. This is shown in Figure 6 as case 1. The current flow direction shown
indicates the state when the xENBL pin is high.
Once the chopping current threshold is reached, the H-bridge can operate in two different states, fast decay or
slow decay.
In fast decay mode, once the PWM chopping current level has been reached, the H-bridge reverses state to
allow winding current to flow in a reverse direction. As the winding current approaches zero, the bridge is
disabled to prevent any reverse current flow. Fast decay mode is shown in Figure 6 as case 2.
In slow decay mode, winding current is re-circulated by enabling both of the low-side FETs in the bridge. This is
shown in Figure 6 as case 3.
Figure 6. Decay Mode
The DRV8812 supports fast decay, slow decay and a mixed decay mode. Slow, fast, or mixed decay mode is
selected by the state of the DECAY pin - logic low selects slow decay, open selects mixed decay operation, and
logic high sets fast decay mode. Note that the DECAY pin sets the decay mode for both H-bridges.
Mixed decay mode begins as fast decay, but at a fixed period of time (75% of the PWM cycle) switches to slow
decay mode for the remainder of the fixed PWM period.
7.4.4 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.
7.4.5 nRESET and nSLEEP Operation
The nRESET pin, when driven active low, resets the internal logic. It also disables the H-bridge drivers. All inputs
are ignored while nRESET is active.

Driving nSLEEP low will put the device into a low power sleep state. In this state, the H-bridges are disabled, the
gate drive charge pump is stopped, the V3P3OUT regulator is disabled, and all internal clocks are stopped. In
this state all inputs are ignored until nSLEEP returns inactive high. When returning from sleep mode, some time
(approximately 1 ms) needs to pass before the motor driver becomes fully operational.
7.4.6 Protection Circuits
The DRV8812 is fully protected against undervoltage, overcurrent and overtemperature events.
7.4.6.1 Overcurrent Protection (OCP)
An analog current limit circuit on each FET limits the current through the FET by removing the gate drive. If this
analog current limit persists for longer than the OCP time, all FETs in the H-bridge will be disabled and the
nFAULT pin will be driven low. The device will remain disabled until either nRESET pin is applied, or VM is
removed and re-applied.
Overcurrent conditions on both high and low side devices; i.e., a short to ground, supply, or across the motor
winding will all result in an overcurrent shutdown. Note that overcurrent protection does not use the current sense
circuitry used for PWM current control, and is independent of the ISENSE resistor value or VREF voltage.
7.4.6.2 Thermal Shutdown (TSD)
If the die temperature exceeds safe limits, all FETs in the H-bridge will be disabled and the nFAULT pin will be
driven low. Once the die temperature has fallen to a safe level operation will automatically resume.
7.4.6.3 Undervoltage Lockout (UVLO)
If at any time the voltage on the VM pins falls below the undervoltage lockout threshold voltage, all circuitry in the
device will be disabled and internal logic will be reset. Operation will resume when VM rises above the UVLO
threshold.

8.2.2 Detailed Design Procedure
8.2.2.1 Current Regulation
In a stepper motor, the set full-scale current (IFS) is the maximum current driven through either winding. This
quantity depends on the xVREF analog voltage and the sense resistor value (RSENSE). During stepping, IFS
defines the current chopping threshold (ITRIP) for the maximum current step. The gain of DRV8812 is set for 5
V/V.
xVREF(V)
xVREF(V)
IFS (A)
A v u RSENSE (:) 5 u RSENSE (:)
(2)
To achieve IFS = 1.25 A with RSENSE of 0.2 Ω, xVREF should be 1.25 V.
8.2.2.2 Decay Modes
The DRV8812 supports three different decay modes: slow decay, fast decay, and mixed decay. The current
through the motor windings is regulated using a fixed-frequency PWM scheme. This means that after any drive
phase, when a motor winding current has hit the current chopping threshold (ITRIP), the DRV8812 will place the
winding in one of the three decay modes until the PWM cycle has expired. Afterward, a new drive phase starts.
The blanking time, tBLANK, defines the minimum drive time for the current chopping. ITRIP is ignored during tBLANK,
so the winding current may overshoot the trip level.
8.2.2.3 Sense Resistor
For optimal performance, it is important for the sense resistor to be:
• Surface-mount
• Low inductance
• Rated for high enough power
• Placed closely to the motor driver
The power dissipated by the sense resistor equals Irms2 x R. For example, if the rms motor current is 2-A and a
100-m Ω sense resistor is used, the resistor will dissipate 2 A ² × 0.1 Ω = 0.4 W. The power quickly increases
with greater current levels.
Resistors typically have a rated power within some ambient temperature range, along with a de-rated power
curve for high ambient temperatures. When a PCB is shared with other components generating heat, margin
should be added. It is always best to measure the actual sense resistor temperature in a final system, along with
the power MOSFETs, as those are often the hottest components.
Because power resistors are larger and more expensive than standard resistors, it is common practice to use
multiple standard resistors in parallel, between the sense node and ground. This distributes the current and heat
dissipation.

9 Power Supply Recommendations
The DRV8812 is designed to operate from an input voltage supply (VMx) range between 8.2 and 45 V. Two
0.1-µF ceramic capacitors rated for VMx must be placed as close as possible to the VMA and VMB pins
respectively (one on each pin). In addition to the local decoupling caps, additional bulk capacitance is required
and must be sized accordingly to the application requirements.
9.1 Bulk Capacitance
Bulk capacitance sizing is an important factor in motor drive system design. It is dependent on a variety of factors
including:
• Type of power supply
• Acceptable supply voltage ripple
• Parasitic inductance in the power supply wiring
• Type of motor (brushed DC, brushless DC, stepper)
• Motor startup current
• Motor braking method
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. You should size the bulk capacitance to meet acceptable
voltage ripple levels.
The data sheet generally provides a recommended value but system level testing is required to determine the
appropriate sized bulk capacitor.

9.2 Power Supply and Logic Sequencing
There is no specific sequence for powering-up the DRV8812. It is okay for digital input signals to be present
before VMx is applied. After VMx is applied to the DRV8812, it begins operation based on the status of the
control pins.

10 Layout
10.1 Layout Guidelines
The VMA and VMB pins should be bypassed to GND using low-ESR ceramic bypass capacitors with a
recommended value of 0.1-μF rated for VMx. This capacitor should be placed as close to the VMA and VMB pins
as possible with a thick trace or ground plane connection to the device GND pin.
The VMA and VMB pins must be bypassed to ground using an appropriate bulk capacitor. This component may
be an electrolytic and should be located close to the DRV8812.
A low-ESR ceramic capacitor must be placed in between the CPL and CPH pins. TI recommends a value of
0.01-μF rated for VMx. Place this component as close to the pins as possible.
A low-ESR ceramic capacitor must be placed in between the VMA and VCP pins. TI recommends a value of 0.1μF rated for 16 V. Place this component as close to the pins as possible. Also, place a 1-MΩ resistor between
VCP and VMA.
Bypass V3P3 to ground with a ceramic capacitor rated 6.3 V. Place this bypass capacitor as close to the pin as
possible

10.3 Thermal Consideration
10.3.1 Thermal Protection
The DRV8812 has thermal shutdown (TSD) as described above. If the die temperature exceeds approximately
150°C, the device will be disabled until the temperature drops to a safe level.
Any tendency of the device to enter TSD is an indication of either excessive power dissipation, insufficient
heatsinking, or too high an ambient temperature.
10.3.2 Power Dissipation
Power dissipation in the DRV8812 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 u RDS(ON) u IOUT(RMS)
2
(3)
where PTOT is the total power dissipation, RDS(ON) is the resistance of each FET, and IOUT(RMS) is the RMS output
current being applied to each winding. IOUT(RMS) is equal to the 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).
The maximum amount of power that can be dissipated in the device is dependent on ambient temperature and
heatsinking.
Note that RDS(ON) increases with temperature, so as the device heats, the power dissipation increases. This must
be taken into consideration when sizing the heatsink.
10.3.3 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 SLMA002, "PowerPAD™ Thermally
Enhanced Package" and TI application brief SLMA004, "PowerPAD™ Made Easy", available at www.ti.com.
In general, the more copper area that can be provided, the more power can be dissipated.
