Board Overview
The DRV8847EVM and DRV8847SEVM let the user access the VM (motor voltage) power rail through a
terminal block (J5). A set of test clips in parallel with the terminal block lets the user monitor the input
power rail.
The VM voltage must be applied according to the recommended parameters in the
shows the primary blocks of the hardware on the DRV8847EVM or DRV8847SEVM.
NOTE:
The VDD voltage for the microcontroller comes from the microUSB connector.
