applications. The device can drive one DC motor or
280 mΩ
other devices like solenoids. The output driver block
consists of N-channel power MOSFET’s configured
1.8-A Maximum Drive Current
as an H-bridge to drive the motor winding. An internal

charge pump generates needed gate drive voltages.
Motor VM: 0 to 11 V
The DRV883x can supply up to 1.8 A of output

current. It operates on a motor power supply voltage
PWM or PH/EN Interface
from 0 to 11 V, and a device power supply voltage of
1.8 V to 7.0 V.
DRV8837: PWM, IN1/IN2
The DRV8837 has a PWM (IN/IN) input interface; the
DRV8838: PH/EN
DRV8837 has a PH/EN input interface. Both
