DRV8842 Description

Short technical summary and product information.

The DRV8842 from Texas Instruments is an integrated motor driver solution designed for applications such as printers, scanners, office automation, factory automation, and robotics. This device features a single H-bridge driver capable of controlling one DC motor or one coil of a stepper motor.

 

Key electrical specifications include an operating supply voltage range of 8.2V to 45V. It offers five-bit winding current control, allowing for up to 32 distinct current levels. The low MOSFET Rds(on) is typically 0.2 Ω (HS + LS). The device can supply a maximum drive current of 5A at 24V and 25°C, with a peak output current capability of up to 6A. It also includes a built-in 3.3V reference output and supports an industry-standard PWM control interface.

 

Protection features are integrated to enhance reliability, including Overcurrent Protection (OCP), Thermal Shutdown (TSD), and VM Undervoltage Lockout (UVLO). A dedicated fault condition indication pin (nFAULT) is also provided. The DRV8842 is available in a thermally enhanced, 28-pin HTSSOP package with PowerPAD, suitable for surface mount applications. The operating temperature range is -40°C to 85°C.
