4.7 MCT8316Z0R Compatibility
The MCT8316ZTEVM is also compatible with the MCT8316Z0R (SPI variant) as the featured motor driver IC
to spin a three-phase Brushless-DC motor. The MCT8316Z0R replaces the MODE, ADVANCE, SLEW, and
VSEL_BK pins with four SPI pins (SDI, SDO, SCLK, nSCS) to configure control registers and read status
registers. When using the MCT8316Z0R:
• SPI enable resistors in the “Depop. if H/W” silk screen box are to be
populated
(R13-R16)
• "Pop. If H/W" resistor (R17) is to be
depopulated
• Resistor dividers in the “Hardware Variant Resistors” silk screen box are to be
depopulated
(R19-R22,
R26-R29).
show the status of populated and DNP resistors for the two compatible MCT8316Zx
variants.
