3 Quick Start Guide
The DRV8329AEVM requires a power supply with a recommended operating range from 4.5-V to 60-V. To setup
and power the EVM, follow the sequence below:
1. Connect the power supply ground to the GND of the 2-pin power connector J10 and the power supply
positive terminal to the PVDD pin of J10. Ensure jumpers JP1, JP2, and JP3 of the LAUNCHXL-F280049C
are not populated (DNP) to ensure that the LaunchPad is powered by the DRV8329AEVM and the motor
supply is isolated from the USB.
2. Connect the motor phases to OUTA, OUTB, and OUTC in the correct order to connector J13. For sensored
applications, connect the Hall sensors to the appropriate locations on the 5-pin connector J11 as shown in
Figure 4-2 . Select AVDD or EXT on jumper J11 to choose the Hall power source voltage.
3. Mate the DRV8329AEVM onto the top half of the LAUNCHXL-F280049C (LaunchPad Headers J1/J3 and
J2/J4) as shown in Figure 4-3 . The motor and power connectors should face the same direction as the
Micro-USB connector on the LaunchPad.
4. Place nSLEEP switch in WAKE position and DRVOFF in ON position.
5. Power on the DRV8329AEVM.
6. Connect a Micro-USB cable from the computer into the Micro USB connector on the top of the LAUNCHXL-
F280049C as shown in Figure 4-4 .
