Texas Instruments DRV8328 EVM Series, User Manual, Page: 8 / 29

Table 3-2. Description of user selectable settings on DRV8328AEVM
Id. Setting Name Description Position Function
A nSLEEP switch Places DRV8328 in sleep
mode S1 = Right Sleep mode
S1 = Left Operating mode
B External CSA output filter RC output filter to
suppress high frequency
transients of CSA output
from current shunt. R59 = 56 ohms, C31 =
2200 pF F c ~1 MHz
C Power stage MOSFETs
and passive components Optional passive
components for tuning
power stage, for example
series gate resistors,
RC snubbers, PVDD-GND
capacitors, PVDD-LSS
capacitors R43, R44, R45, R49, R50,
R51 = 10 ohm Series gate resistors
(GHA, GHB, GHC, GLA,
GLB, GLC)
R40/C10, R41/C11, R42/
C12, R55/C24, R56/C22,
R57/C23 RC snubbers
(HS FET A, HS FET B, HS
FET C, LS FET A, LS FET
B, LS FET C)
C14, C16, C18 = 2.2 uF PVDD-VDRAIN bypass
capacitor
C19, C20, C21 = 0.01 uF PVDD-LSS bypass
capacitors
D LDO jumpers Jumpers to enable the
external LDO and disable
the LDO output. Remove
jumpers if DRV8328C/D is
used. J8 = Populated LDO is enabled
J8 = DNP LDO is disabled
J16 = Populated LDO outputs 3.3 V
J16 = DNP LDO output removed
E Dead time potentiometer,
jumper, & resistor Jumper to enable
dead time control
from potentiometer and
potentiometer used to set
the resistance for DT pin
(DRV8328A/B only). J14 = Populated DT from pot is enabled
J14 = DNP DT from pot is disabled
R99 (CW = more DT,
CCW = less DT) Sets dead time of gate
outputs
R91 Fixed resistor for DT pin
F HALL_PWR select Use J6 to supply Hall
power from 3.3 V or 5 V. J11 = AVDD Supplies AVDD to Hall
power
J11 = EXT Supply external hall power
from HALL_PWR_EXT
G VDSLVL potentiometer,
select and disable jumpers Potentiometer to set
VDSLVL between 0.1-2.5
V, VDSLVL_SEL to select
voltage source, disable
jumper to disable VDSLVL J15 = POT VDSLVL set from
potentiometer
J15 = EXT VDSLVL set from
VDS_EXT
J13 = Populated VDSLVL is disabled (100
kΩ to GVDD)
J13 = DNP VDSLVL is enabled
R92 Sets VDSLVL from 0.1
V-2.5 V
H DRV8328 A/B or C/D
select 0-ohm resistors to
populate depending of
variant of DRV8328 used
on the EVM. R1-R10 = DNP, R11 – R21
= 0-ohm DRV8328A is populated
DRV8328B is populated
R1-R10 = 0-ohm, R11 –
R21 = DNP DRV8328C is populated
DRV8328D is populated
