DRV8402DKD Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

• What is the maximum current rating of the DRV8402DKD?
  The maximum current rating of the DRV8402DKD is 2A per phase, with a peak current of 4A.
• How do I configure the DRV8402DKD for different motor types?
  The DRV8402DKD can be configured for different motor types by adjusting the sense resistor values and the current limit settings. Refer to the application note SLVA876 for more information.
• What is the purpose of the EN pin on the DRV8402DKD?
  The EN (enable) pin is used to enable or disable the motor driver. When the EN pin is high, the driver is enabled, and when it is low, the driver is disabled.
• How do I protect the DRV8402DKD from overvoltage and undervoltage conditions?
  The DRV8402DKD has built-in overvoltage and undervoltage protection. However, it is recommended to add external protection circuits, such as a voltage regulator and a TVS diode, to ensure robust protection.
• What is the thermal shutdown temperature of the DRV8402DKD?
  The thermal shutdown temperature of the DRV8402DKD is 170°C. The device will shut down if the junction temperature exceeds this value.
