7 Detailed Description
7.1 Overview
The DRV8829 is an integrated motor driver solution for bipolar stepper motors or single/dual brushed-DC motors.
The device integrates an NMOS H-bridge and current regulation circuitry. The DRV8829 can be powered with a
supply voltage from 8.2 to 45 V, and is capable of providing an output current up to 5-A peak or 3.5-A rms.
Actual operable rms current will depend on ambient temperature, supply voltage, and PCP ground plane size.
A simple PH/EN interface allows easy interfacing to the controller circuit.
The current regulation is highly configurable, with several decay modes of operation. The decay mode can be
selected as a fixed slow, mixed, or fast decay.
A current scalar feature allows the controller to scale the output current without needing to scale the analog
reference voltage input VREF. The DAC is accessed using digital input pins. This allows the controller to save
power by decreasing the current consumption when not required.
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 DRV8829 contains one H-bridge motor driver with current-control PWM circuitry. Figure 3 shows a block
diagram of the motor control circuitry. A bipolar stepper motor is shown, but the driver can also drive a DC motor.
Figure 3. Motor Control Circuitry
There are multiple VM, ISEN, OUT, and VREF pins. All like-named pins must be connected together on the PCB.
7.3.2 Blanking Time
After the current is enabled in the H-bridge, the voltage on the ISEN pin is ignored for a fixed period of time
before enabling the current sense circuitry. This blanking time is fixed at 3.75 μs. The blanking time also sets the
minimum on time of the PWM.
7.3.3 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-bridge is 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. The nRESET and
nSLEEP have internal pulldown resistors of approximately 100 kΩ. These signals need to be driven to logic high
for device operation.
7.3.4 Protection Circuits
The DRV8829 is fully protected against undervoltage, overcurrent and overtemperature events.
7.3.4.1 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; that is, a short to ground, supply, or across the motor
winding will all result in an overcurrent shutdown. The 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.

Feature Description (continued)
7.3.4.2 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.
7.3.4.3 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.
7.3.5 Current Regulation
The current through the motor winding is regulated by a fixed-frequency PWM current regulation, or current
chopping. When the 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.
If the current regulation feature is not needed, it can be disabled by connecting the ISENSE pins directly to
ground and the VREF pins to V3P3.
The PWM chopping current in each bridge is set by a comparator which compares the voltage across a current
sense resistor connected to the ISEN pin, multiplied by a factor of 5, with a reference voltage. The reference
voltage is input from the xVREF pins, and is scaled by a 5-bit DAC that allows current settings of zero to 100% in
an approximately sinusoidal sequence.
The full-scale (100%) chopping current is calculated in Equation 1.
VREFX
ICHOP = 5¾
· RISENSE
(1)
Example:
If a 0.25-Ω sense resistor is used and the VREFx pin is 2.5 V, the full-scale (100%) chopping current will be
2.5 V / (5 × 0.25 Ω) = 2 A.
Five input pins (I0 - I4) are used to scale the current in the bridge as a percentage of the full-scale current set by
the VREF input pin and sense resistance. The I0 - I4 pins have internal pulldown resistors of approximately 100
kΩ. The function of the pins is shown in Table 1.

7.4 Device Functional Modes
7.4.1 Bridge Control
The PHASE input pin controls the direction of current flow through the H-bridge. The ENBL input pin enables the
H-bridge outputs when active high. Table 2 shows the logic.

The control inputs have internal pulldown resistors of approximately 100 kΩ.
7.4.2 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 4 as case 1. The current flow direction shown
indicates the state when the PHASE 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 4 as case 2.
In slow decay mode, winding current is recirculated by enabling both of the low-side FETs in the bridge. This is
shown in Figure 4 as case 3.

Figure 4. Decay Modes
The DRV8829 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. The DECAY pin has both an internal pullup resistor of approximately 130 kΩ
and an internal pulldown resistor of approximately 80 kΩ. This sets the mixed decay mode if the pin is left open
or undriven.
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.

8.2.2 Detailed Design Procedure
The maximum current (ITRIP) is set by the Ix pins, the VREF analog voltage, and the sense resistor value
(RSENSE). When starting a brushed-DC motor, a large inrush current may occur because there is no back-EMF.
Current regulation will act to limit this inrush current and prevent high current on start-up.
VREFX
ICHOP = 5¾
· RISENSE
(2)
Example: If the desired chopping current is 3.5 A
Set RSENSE = 100 mΩ
VREF would have to be 1.75 V.
Create a resistor divider from V3P3OUT (3.3 V) to set VREF ≈ 1.75 V.
Set R2 = 18 kΩ, set R1 = 16 kΩ
8.2.2.1 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-mΩ sense resistor is used, the resistor will dissipate 2 A² × 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 DRV8829 is designed to operate from an input voltage supply (VM) range from 8.2 V to 45 V. The device
has an absolute maximum rating of 47 V. A 0.1-µF ceramic capacitor rated for VM must be placed at each VM
pin as close to the DRV8829 as possible. In addition, a bulk capacitor must be included on VM.
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 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 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. 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.
The voltage rating for bulk capacitors should be greater than the operating voltage, to provide margin for cases
when the motor transfers energy to the supply.

10 Layout
10.1 Layout Guidelines
Each VM terminal must be bypassed to GND using a low-ESR ceramic bypass capacitors with recommended
values of 0.1 μF rated for VM. These capacitors should be placed as close to the VM pins as possible with a
thick trace or ground plane connection to the device GND pin.
The VM pin must be bypassed to ground using a bulk capacitor rated for VM. This component may be an
electrolytic.
A low-ESR ceramic capacitor must be placed in between the CP1 and CP2 pins. TI recommends a value of 0.1
μF rated for VM . Place this component as close to the pins as possible.
A low-ESR ceramic capacitor must be placed in between the VM and VCP pins. TI recommends a value of 0.47
μF rated for 16 V. Place this component as close to the pins as possible. In addition, place a 1 MΩ between VM
and VCP.
Bypass V3P3OUT to ground with a ceramic capacitor rated 6.3 V. Place this bypassing capacitor as close to the
pin as possible.
The current sense resistor should be placed as close as possible to the device pins to minimize trace inductance
between the pin and resistor.

10.3 Thermal Considerations
The DRV8829 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.
10.4 Power Dissipation
Power dissipation in the DRV8829 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 (W)
ª¬RDS(ON),HS (:) RDS(ON),LS (:)º¼ u ª¬IOUT(RMS) (A)º¼
2
where
•
•
•
PTOT is the total power dissipation
RDS(ON) is the resistance of each FET (high-side and low-side)
IOUT(RMS) is the RMS output current being applied to each winding
(3)
IOUT(RMS) is equal to the approximately 0.7x the full-scale output current setting.
The maximum amount of power that can be dissipated in the device is dependent on ambient temperature and
heatsinking.
RDS(ON) increases with temperature, so as the device heats, the power dissipation increases. This must be taken
into consideration when sizing the heatsink.
10.4.1 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.
