Introduction
The evaluation module includes two DRV8860 devices in a daisy-chain connection and an on-board
MSP430F2350 microcontroller (MCU). A USB-to-UART interface on the board allows communication
between the PC and the EVM. To setup the evaluation functions, connect the device with a USB wire to a
computer USB port, apply 8-V to 38-V VM power to EVM, and install and launch the GUI software. The
following functions are available through the DRV8860 device evaluation:
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
Send specific output data from GUI to DRV8860.
Read back the output states of DRV8860 and display on GUI.
Read back the fault register of DRV8860 and display on GUI.
Enable or disable the output of DRV8860 via GUI.
Send control register including the energizing time and PWM duty to DRV8860.
Provide an optional VM switch and can be controlled via GUI.
Run four unipolar stepper motors with direction and micro-stepping (full or half) control.
Send the same output pattern to up to 255 DRV8860 devices in daisy-chain connection.
After the functions are evaluated on this EVM, the board can separate the two DRV8860 circuits from the
main board. This separation allows customers to apply their own systems for quick prototype verification.
The board has spare connector pins, GPIOs, switches, and LEDs for customized tests or re-development.

Optional VM Switch Connection
DRV8860 has an on-chip open-load detect function. This function causes an additional 30-µA current
consumption by each channel. An optional VM switch on the board shuts down the DRV8860 circuit from
the power supply.

Figure 6. Connected Power Supply With the VM Switch
2.2.3
Computer USB Connection
Use the micro-USB wire along with the EVM kit to connect to any computer with the USB-to-UART
interface driver already installed. (Refer to Section 3.2 to learn how to install the driver.) This USB
connection serves as the data transfer as well as the 5-V power supply for the on-board FT232 part and
the 3.3-V out of the FT232 to the MSP430 MCU.
After the USB wire connects, LED D1 starts flashing.
2.2.4
Load Connection
Eight LEDs serve as virtual load indicators on the board. Other loads such as relays, solenoids, heaters,
bulbs, and motors can connect between each of the outputs to VM in a single connection or parallel. Refer
to the DRV8860 device specifications for more information on current capability and power consumption.
2.2.5
LED Load Connection
If the LED is driven (similar to the EVM) beside the current-limit resistor, TI recommends connecting an
additional resistor of 27 kΩ from the output to the VM. During the output off state, the open-load detection
circuit inside DRV8860 sinks 30 µA from the load path. Although the 30-µA current is low, it causes the
LED to emit a dim light during the off state. A 27 kΩ bypass resistor clamps the voltage drop to < 1 V in
30-µA condition, so that the LED can be totally shut off because 1 V does not suffice to reach the light
threshold for most types of LED.
2.2.6
Motor Connection
For the unipolar motor connection, connect the motor wires to the driver (see Figure 7) to get the motor
driven properly with the sequence built in the firmware of the MCU on board. (The unipolar motor is not
included in the EVM kit. The current of the motor should be within the OCP 500-mA range. For example, if
VM is 12 V, the DC resistance of the motor phase-to-CT should > 24 Ω).

COM Port Selection
After launching the GUI, the first step is to select the proper COM port. Although this port value is
designed so it can be changed after other operations, TI recommends setting it correctly in the beginning.
Check the COM port information in the my computer properties in your system to be sure of the COM port
value for the EVM kit. COM2 is commonly assigned to the port.
Note: if the COM number is set incorrectly, no prompts or errors appear, nor a response from the EVM.
3.3.2
Send Output Data, Read Back Output Register States, and Read Back Fault Register and Enable.
Operation flow: Select the check box SEND OUTPUT DATA, READ OUT REGS, then READ FAULT
REGS.
1. Check the box of OUT1 to OUT8 as needed, then click SEND OUTPUT DATA. The output of
DRV8860 changes the state accordingly. There is a HEX indicator below the check box that displays
the output data in HEX format.

2. Click READ OUT REGS. The real output register value of the current state reads back to the MCU and
sends back to GUI. The green bulbs light according to the states. If the command correctly sends to
the MCU, the MCU gives SPI control to DRV8860, and after read-back, the green bulbs match the
checked boxes.
3. Click the READ FAULT REGS button. The 16-bit fault register, including 8-bit OCP and 8-bit OLD
information, read back to GUI. Note that real OCP occurs when the output bit is in the ON state. Real
OLD information detects when the output bit is in the OFF state.
4. The ENABLE OUTPUT check box controls the ENABLE pin of the two DRV8860 devices. If it is
checked off, the ENABLE pin drives low. All outputs shut off even if the output register is on.
3.3.3
Energizing Time and PWM Duty Selection
Select the energizing time and PWM duty cycle to control register value builds. After clicking SEND CTRL,
the output states change immediately according to the control register value. To recover 100% duty
operation, select Energizing All Time in the drop-down options of the energizing menu and click SEND
CTRL.
3.3.4
