SLVSAB2G MAY 2010REVISED DECEMBER 2015
DRV8830 Low-Voltage Motor Driver With Serial Interface
1 Features 3 Description
The DRV8830 device provides an integrated motor
1
H-Bridge Voltage-Controlled Motor Driver
driver solution for battery-powered toys, printers, and
Drives DC Motor, One Winding of a Stepper
other low-voltage or battery-powered motion control
Motor, or Other Actuators/Loads
applications. The device has one H-bridge driver, and
Efficient PWM Voltage Control for Constant
can drive one DC motor or one winding of a stepper
motor, as well as other loads like solenoids. The
Motor Speed With Varying Supply Voltages
output driver block consists of N-channel and P-
Low MOSFET On-Resistance:
channel power MOSFETs configured as an H-bridge
HS + LS 450 mΩ
to drive the motor winding.
1-A Maximum DC/RMS or Peak Drive Current
Provided with sufficient PCB heatsinking, the
2.75-V to 6.8-V Operating Supply Voltage Range
DRV8830 can supply up to 1-A of DC/RMS or peak
300-nA (Typical) Sleep Mode Current
output current. It operates on power supply voltages
from 2.75 V to 6.8 V.
