DRV8316xEVM Evaluation Module

ABSTRACT

This document is provided with the 

DRV8316xEVM customer evaluation module (EVM)

 as a supplement to the 

DRV8316 data sheet

 (

DRV8316 4.5-V to 35-V Three-Phase Smart Gate Driver

). This user's guide details the 

hardware implementation of the EVM and how to setup and power the board.

Note

The EVM is populated and configured for the DRV8316R (SPI variant) device by default. To configure 
the EVM for the DRV8316T (Hardware variant), please see 

Section 4.1.1

.
