Feature Description (continued)
Note that if the programmed output voltage is greater than the supply voltage, the device will operate at 100%
duty cycle and the voltage regulation feature will be disabled. In this mode the device behaves as a conventional
H-bridge driver.
During the PWM off time, winding current is recirculated by enabling both of the high-side FETs in the bridge.
This is shown in Figure 8.

7.3.2 Voltage Setting (VSET DAC)
The DRV8830 includes an internal reference voltage that is connected to a DAC. This DAC generates a voltage
which is used to set the PWM regulated output voltage as described in Voltage Regulation.
The DAC is controlled by the VSET bits from the serial interface. The commanded output voltage is shown in
Table 1.
