DRV84x2_DRV82x2_DRV89x2-EVM User's Guide

ABSTRACT

This document is provided with the DRV84x2_DRV82x2_DRV89x2-EVM User customer evaluation module 
(EVM) as a supplement to the DRV8462, DRV8962, and DRV8262 data sheets. This user's guide details the 
hardware implementation of the EVM and how to install the software packages.

Note

If you ordered a DRV8452EVM use hardware files for DRV8462EVM.
At the moment the silk screen has the following errata.
• The Silk screen says OUT3, it should say OUT4
• The Silk screen says OUT4, it should say OUT3
