No External Snubber or Schottky Diode is
Required
Because of the low RDS(on) of the H-Bridge MOSFETs
and intelligent gate drive design, the efficiency of
these motor drivers can be up to 97%, which enables
the use of smaller power supplies and heatsinks, and
are good candidates for energy efficient applications.
The DRV8412/22/32 require two power supplies, one
at 12 V for GVDD and VDD, and another up to 50 V
for PVDD. The DRV8412/22/32 can operate at up to
500-kHz switching frequency while still maintain
precise control and high efficiency. They also have an
innovative protection system safeguarding the device
against a wide range of fault conditions that could
damage the system. These safeguards are
short-circuit protection, overcurrent protection,
undervoltage protection, and two-stage thermal
protection.
The
DRV8412/22/32
have
a
current-limiting circuit that prevents device shutdown
during load transients such as motor start-up. A
programmable overcurrent detector allows adjustable
current limit and protection level to meet different
motor requirements.
The DRV8412/22/32 have unique independent supply
and ground pins for each half bridge, which makes it
possible to provide current measurement through
external shunt resistor and support multiple motors
with different power supply voltage requirements.

This integrated circuit can be damaged by ESD. Texas Instruments recommends that all integrated circuits be handled with
appropriate precautions. Failure to observe proper handling and installation procedures can cause damage.
ESD damage can range from subtle performance degradation to complete device failure. Precision integrated circuits may be more
susceptible to damage because very small parametric changes could cause the device not to meet its published specifications.

THEORY OF OPERATION
POWER SUPPLIES
To facilitate system design, the DRV8412/22/32 need
only a 12-V supply in addition to H-Bridge power
supply (PVDD). An internal voltage regulator provides
suitable voltage levels for the digital and low-voltage
analog circuitry. Additionally, the high-side gate drive
requiring a floating voltage supply, which is
accommodated by built-in bootstrap circuitry requiring
external bootstrap capacitor.
To provide symmetrical electrical characteristics, the
PWM signal path, including gate drive and output
stage, is designed as identical, independent
half-bridges. For this reason, each half-bridge has a
separate gate drive supply (GVDD_X), a bootstrap
pin (BST_X), and a power-stage supply pin
(PVDD_X). Furthermore, an additional pin (VDD) is
provided as supply for all common circuits. Special
attention should be paid to place all decoupling
capacitors as close to their associated pins as
possible. In general, inductance between the power
supply pins and decoupling capacitors must be
avoided. Furthermore, decoupling capacitors need a
short ground path back to the device.
For a properly functioning bootstrap circuit, a small
ceramic capacitor (an X5R or better) must be
connected from each bootstrap pin (BST_X) to the
power-stage output pin (OUT_X). When the
power-stage output is low, the bootstrap capacitor is
charged through an internal diode connected
between the gate-drive power-supply pin (GVDD_X)
and the bootstrap pin. When the power-stage output
is high, the bootstrap capacitor potential is shifted
above the output potential and thus provides a
suitable voltage supply for the high-side gate driver.
In an application with PWM switching frequencies in
the range from 10 kHz to 500 kHz, the use of 100-nF
ceramic capacitors (X5R or better), size 0603 or
0805, is recommended for the bootstrap supply.
These 100-nF capacitors ensure sufficient energy
storage, even during minimal PWM duty cycles, to
keep the high-side power stage FET fully turned on
during the remaining part of the PWM cycle. In an
application running at a switching frequency lower
than 10 kHz, the bootstrap capacitor might need to be
increased in value.
compliance, and system reliability, it is important that
each PVDD_X pin is decoupled with a ceramic
capacitor (X5R or better) placed as close as possible
to each supply pin. It is recommended to follow the
PCB layout of the DRV8412/22/32 EVM board.
The 12-V supply should be from a low-noise,
low-output-impedance voltage regulator. Likewise, the
50-V power-stage supply is assumed to have low
output impedance and low noise. The power-supply
sequence is not critical as facilitated by the internal
power-on-reset circuit. Moreover, the DRV8412/22/32
are fully protected against erroneous power-stage
turn-on due to parasitic gate charging. Thus,
voltage-supply ramp rates (dv/dt) are non-critical
within the specified voltage range (see the
Recommended Operating Conditions section of this
data sheet).
SYSTEM POWER-UP/POWER-DOWN
SEQUENCE
Powering Up
The DRV8412/22/32 do not require a power-up
sequence. The outputs of the H-bridges remain in a
high impedance state until the gate-drive supply
voltage GVDD_X and VDD voltage are above the
undervoltage protection (UVP) voltage threshold (see
the Electrical Characteristics section of this data
sheet). Although not specifically required, holding
RESET_AB and RESET_CD in a low state while
powering up the device is recommended. This allows
an internal circuit to charge the external bootstrap
capacitors by enabling a weak pulldown of the
half-bridge output.
Powering Down
The DRV8412/22/32 do not require a power-down
sequence. The device remains fully operational as
long as the gate-drive supply (GVDD_X) voltage and
VDD voltage are above the UVP voltage threshold
(see the Electrical Characteristics section of this data
sheet). Although not specifically required, it is a good
practice to hold RESET_AB and RESET_CD low
during power down to prevent any unknown state
during this transition.
Special attention should be paid to the power-stage
power supply; this includes component selection,
PCB placement, and routing. As indicated, each
half-bridge has independent power-stage supply pin
(PVDD_X). For optimal electrical performance, EMI

ERROR REPORTING
Bootstrap Capacitor Under Voltage Protection
The FAULT and OTW pins are both active-low,
open-drain
outputs.
Their
function
is
for
protection-mode signaling to a PWM controller or
other system-control device.
When the device runs at a low switching frequency
(e.g. less than 10 kHz with a 100-nF bootstrap
capacitor), the bootstrap capacitor voltage might not
be able to maintain a proper voltage level for the
high-side gate driver. A bootstrap capacitor
undervoltage protection circuit (BST_UVP) will
prevent potential failure of the high-side MOSFET.
When the voltage on the bootstrap capacitors is less
than the required value for safe operation, the
DRV8412/22/32 will initiate bootstrap capacitor
recharge sequences (turn off high side FET for a
short period) until the bootstrap capacitors are
properly charged for safe operation. This function
may also be activated when PWM duty cycle is too
high (e.g. less than 20 ns off time at 10 kHz). Note
that bootstrap capacitor might not be able to be
charged if no load or extremely light load is presented
at output during BST_UVP operation, so it is
recommended to turn on the low side FET for at least
50 ns for each PWM cycle to avoid BST_UVP
operation if possible.
Any fault resulting in device shutdown, such as
overtemperatue shut down, overcurrent shut-down, or
undervoltage protection, is signaled by the FAULT pin
going low. Likewise, OTW goes low when the device
junction temperature exceeds 125°C (see Table 1).

Device under normal operation
TI recommends monitoring the OTW signal using the
system microcontroller and responding to an OTW
signal by reducing the load current to prevent further
heating of the device resulting in device
overtemperature shutdown (OTSD).
To reduce external component count, an internal
pullup resistor to VREG (3.3 V) is provided on both
FAULT and OTW outputs. Level compliance for 5-V
logic can be obtained by adding external pull-up
resistors to 5 V (see the Electrical Characteristics
section of this data sheet for further specifications).
DEVICE PROTECTION SYSTEM
The DRV8412/22/32 contain advanced protection
circuitry carefully designed to facilitate system
integration and ease of use, as well as to safeguard
the device from permanent failure due to a wide
range of fault conditions such as short circuits,
overcurrent, overtemperature, and undervoltage. The
DRV8412/22/32 respond to a fault by immediately
setting the half bridge outputs in a high-impedance
(Hi-Z) state and asserting the FAULT pin low. In
situations other than overcurrent or overtemperature,
the device automatically recovers when the fault
condition has been removed or the gate supply
voltage has increased. For highest possible reliability,
reset the device externally no sooner than 1 second
after the shutdown when recovering from an
overcurrent shut down (OCSD) or OTSD fault.
Overcurrent (OC) Protection
The DRV8412/22/32 have independent, fast-reacting
current detectors with programmable trip threshold
(OC threshold) on all high-side and low-side
power-stage FETs. There are two settings for OC
protection
through
mode
selection
pins:
cycle-by-cycle (CBC) current limiting mode and OC
latching (OCL) shut down mode.
In CBC current limiting mode, the detector outputs
are monitored by two protection systems. The first
protection system controls the power stage in order to
prevent the output current from further increasing,
i.e., it performs a CBC current-limiting function rather
than prematurely shutting down the device. This
feature could effectively limit the inrush current during
motor start-up or transient without damaging the
device. During short to power and short to ground
conditions, the current limit circuitry might not be able
to control the current to a proper level, a second
protection system triggers a latching shutdown,
resulting in the related half bridge being set in the
high-impedance (Hi-Z) state. Current limiting and
overcurrent
protection
are
independent
for
half-bridges A, B, C, and, D, respectively.
Figure 6 illustrates cycle-by-cycle operation with high
side OC event and Figure 7 shows cycle-by-cycle
operation with low side OC. Dashed lines are the
operation waveforms when no CBC event is triggered
and solide lines show the waveforms when CBC

off the affected low side FET and keep the high side
FET at the same half brdige off until next PWM cycle;
when high side FET OC is detected, devcie will turn
off the affected high side FET and turn on the low
side FET at the half brdige until next PWM cycle.
In OC latching shut down mode, the CBC current limit
and error recovery circuitries are disabled and an
overcurrent condition will cause the device to
shutdown immediately. After shutdown, RESET_AB
and/or RESET_CD must be asserted to restore
normal operation after the overcurrent condition is
removed.
For added flexibility, the OC threshold is
programmable using a single external resistor
connected between the OC_ADJ pin and GND pin.
See Table 2 for information on the correlation
between programming-resistor value and the OC
threshold. It should be noted that a properly
functioning overcurrent detector assumes the
presence of a proper inductor or power ferrite bead at
the power-stage output. Short-circuit protection is not
guaranteed with direct short at the output pins of the
power stage.

Overtemperature Protection
The
DRV8412/22/32
have
a
two-level
temperature-protection system that asserts an
active-low warning signal (OTW) when the device
junction temperature exceeds 125°C (nominal) and, if
the device junction temperature exceeds 150°C
(nominal), the device is put into thermal shutdown,
resulting in all half-bridge outputs being set in the
high-impedance (Hi-Z) state and FAULT being
asserted low. OTSD is latched in this case and
RESET_AB and RESET_CD must be asserted low to
clear the latch.
Undervoltage Protection (UVP) and Power-On
Reset (POR)
The UVP and POR circuits of the DRV8412/22/32
fully protect the device in any power-up/down and
brownout situation. While powering up, the POR
circuit resets the overcurrent circuit and ensures that
all circuits are fully operational when the GVDD_X
and VDD supply voltages reach 9.8 V (typical).
Although GVDD_X and VDD are independently
monitored, a supply voltage drop below the UVP
threshold on any VDD or GVDD_X pin results in all
half-bridge outputs immediately being set in the
high-impedance (Hi-Z) state and FAULT being
asserted low. The device automatically resumes
operation when all supply voltage on the bootstrap
capacitors have increased above the UVP threshold.
DEVICE RESET
Two reset pins are provided for independent control
of half-bridges A/B and C/D. When RESET_AB is
asserted low, all four power-stage FETs in
half-bridges A and B are forced into a
high-impedance (Hi-Z) state. Likewise, asserting
RESET_CD low forces all four power-stage FETs in
half-bridges C and D into a high-impedance state. To
accommodate bootstrap charging prior to switching
start, asserting the reset inputs low enables weak
pulldown of the half-bridge outputs.
A rising-edge transition on reset input allows the
device to resume operation after a shut-down fault.
E.g., when either or both half-bridge A and B have
OC shutdown, a low to high transition of RESET_AB
pin will clear the fault and FAULT pin; when either or
both half-bridge C and D have OC shutdown, a low to
high transition of RESET_CD pin will clear the fault
and FAULT pin as well. When an OTSD or GVDD
undervoltage
occurs,
both
RESET_AB
and
RESET_CD need to have a low to high transition to
clear the fault and FAULT signal.

DIFFERENT OPERATIONAL MODES
The DRV8412/22/32 support four different modes of
operation:
1. Dual full bridges (FB) (two PWM inputs each full
bridge) or four half bridges (HB) with CBC current
limit
2. Dual full bridges (two PWM inputs each full
bridge) or four half bridges with OC latching
shutdown (no CBC current limit)
3. Parallel full bridge (PFB) with CBC current limit
4. Dual full bridges (one PWM input each full bridge)
with CBC current limit
In mode 1 and 2, PWM_A controls half bridge A,
PWM_B controls half bridge B, etc. Figure 8 shows
an application example for full bridge mode operation.
In parallel full bridge mode (mode 3), PWM_A
controls both half bridges A and B, and PWM_B
controls both half bridges C and D, while PWM_C
and PWM_D pins are not used (recommended to
connect to ground). Bridges A and B are
synchronized internally (even during CBC), and so
are bridges C and D. OUT_A and OUT_B should be
connected together and OUT_C and OUT_D should
be connected together after the output inductor or
ferrite bead. Figure 9 shows an example of parallel
full bridge mode connection.
In mode 4, one PWM signal controls one full bridge to
relieve some I/O resource from MCU, i.e., PWM_A
controls half bridges A and B and PWM_C controls
half bridges C and D. In this mode, the operation of
half bridge B is complementary to half bridge A, and
the operation of half bridge D is complementary to
half bridge C. For example, when PWM_A is high,
high side FET in half bridge A and low side FET in
half bridge B will be on and low side FET in half
bridge A and high side FET in half bridge B will be
off. Since PWM_B and PWM_D pins are not used in
this mode, it is recommended to connect them to
ground.
Because each half bridge has independent supply
and ground pins, a shunt sensing resistor can be
inserted between PVDD to PVDD_X or GND_X to
GND (ground plane). A high side shunt resistor
between PVDD and PVDD_X is recommended for
differential current sensing because a high bias
voltage on the low side sensing could affect device
operation. If low side sensing has to be used, a shunt
resistor value of 10 mΩ or less or sense voltage 100
mV or less is recommended.
The DRV8412/22/32 can be used for stepper motor
applications as illustrated in Figure 10; they can be
also used in three phase permanent magnet
synchronous motor (PMSM) and sinewave brushless
DC motor applications. Figure 11 and Figure 12 show
the three-phase application example with different
current sense locations.
Figure 13 shows an example of a TEC driver
application. Same configuration can also be used for
DC output applications.

APPLICATION INFORMATION
SYSTEM DESIGN RECOMMENDATIONS
Voltage of Decoupling Capacitor
The voltage of the decoupling capacitors should be selected in accordance with good design practices.
Temperature, ripple current, and voltage overshoot must be considered. The high frequency decoupling capacitor
should use ceramic capacitor with X5R or better rating. For a 50-V application, a minimum voltage rating of 63 V
is recommended.
VREG Pin
The VREG pin is used for internal logic and not recommended to be used as a voltage source for external
circuitry.
VDD Pin
The transient current in VDD pin could be significantly higher than average current through that pin. A low
resistive path to GVDD should be used. A 22-µF to 47-µF capacitor should be placed on VDD pin beside the
100-nF to 1-µF decoupling capacitor to provide a constant voltage during transient.
OTW Pin
OTW reporting indicates the device approaching high junction temperature. This signal can be used with MCU to
decrease system power when OTW is low in order to prevent OT shut down at a higher temperature.
Mode Select Pin
Mode select pins (M1, M2, and M3) should be connected to either VREG (for logic high) or AGND for logic low. It
is not recommended to connect mode pins to board ground if 1-Ω resistor is used between AGND and GND.
Output Inductor Selection
For normal operation, inductance in motor (assume larger than 10 µH) is sufficient to provide low di/dt output
(e.g. for EMI) and proper protection during overload condition (CBC current limiting feature). So no additional
output inductors are needed during normal operation.
However during a short condition, the motor (or other load) is shorted, so the load inductance is not present in
the system anymore; the current in the device can reach such a high level that may exceed the abs max current
rating due to extremely low impendence in the short circuit path and high di/dt before oc detection circuit kickes
in. So a ferrite bead or inductor is recommended to utilize the short circuit protection feature in DRV8412/22/32.
With an external inductance or ferrite bead, the current will rise at a much slower rate and reach a lower current
level before oc protection starts. The device will then either operate CBC current limit or OC shut down
automatically (when current is well above the current limit threshold) to protect the system.
For a system that has limited space, a power ferrite bead can be used instead of an inductor. The current rating
of ferrite bead has to be higher than the RMS current of the system at normal operation. A ferrite bead designed
for very high frequency is NOT recommended. A minimum impedance of 10 Ω or higher is recommended at 10
MHz or lower frequency to effectively limit the current rising rate during short circuit condition.
The TDK MPZ2012S300A and MPZ2012S101A (with size of 0805 inch type) have been tested in our system to
meet a short circuit condition in the DRV8412. But other ferrite beads that have similar frequency characteristics
can be used as well.
For higher power applications, such as in the DRV8422 and DRV8432, there might be limited options to select
suitable ferrite bead with high current rating. If an adequate ferrite bead cannot be found, an inductor can be
used.
The inductance can be calculated as:
PVDD × Toc _ delay
Loc _ min =
Ipeak - Iave
(1)
Where Toc_delay = 250 nS, Ipeak = 15 A (below abs max rating).

SLES242A – DECEMBER 2009 – REVISED DECEMBER 2009
Because an inductor usually saturates pretty quickly after reaching its current rating, it is recommended to use an
inductor with a doubled value or an inductor with a current rating well above the operating condition.
Parallel Mode Operation
For a device operated in parallel mode, a minimum of 30 nH to 100 nH inductance or a ferrite bead is required
after the output pins (e.g. OUT_A and OUT_B) before connecting the two channels together. This will help to
prevent any shoot through between two paralleled channels during switching transient due to mismatch of
paralleled channels (e.g., processor variation, unsymmetrical PCB layout, etc).
TEC Driver Application
For TEC driver or other non-motor related applications (e.g. resistive load or dc output), a low-pass LC filter can
be used to meet the requirement.
PCB LAYOUT RECOMMENDATION
PCB Material Recommendation
FR-4 Glass Epoxy material with 2 oz. copper on both top and bottom layer is recommended for improved thermal
performance (better heat sinking) and less noise susceptibility (lower PCB trace inductance).
Ground Plane
Because of the power level of these devices, it is recommended to use a big unbroken single ground plane for
the whole system / board. The ground plane can be easily made at bottom PCB layer. In order to minimize the
impedance and inductance of ground traces, the traces from ground pins should keep as short and wide as
possible before connected to bottom ground plane through vias. Multiple vias are suggested to reduce the
impedance of vias. Try to clear the space around the device as much as possible especially at bottom PCB side
to improve the heat spreading.
Decoupling Capacitor
High frequency decoupling capacitors (100 nF) on PVDD_X pins should be placed close to these pins and with a
short ground return path to minimize the inductance on the PCB trace.
AGND
AGND is a localized internal ground for logic signals. A 1-Ω resistor is recommended to be connected between
GND and AGND to isolate the noise from board ground to AGND. There are other two components are
connected to this local ground: 0.1-µF capacitor between VREG to AGND and Roc_adj resistor between
OC_ADJ and AGND. Capacitor for VREG should be placed close to VREG and AGND pin and connected
without vias.
Current Shunt Resistor
If current shunt resistor is connected between GND_X to GND or PVDD_X to PVDD, make sure there is only one
single path to connect each GND_X or PVDD_X pin to shunt resistor, and the path is short and symmetrical on
each sense path to minimize the measurement error due to additional resistance on the trace.
PCB LAYOUT EXAMPLE
An example of the schematic and PCB layout of DRV8412 are shown in Figure 14, Figure 15, and Figure 16.

THERMAL INFORMATION
The thermally enhanced package provided with the DRV8422/32 is designed to interface directly to heat sink
using a thermal interface compound, (e.g., Ceramique from Arctic Silver, TIMTronics 413, etc.). The heat sink
then absorbs heat from the ICs and couples it to the local air. It is also a good practice to connect the heatsink to
system ground on the PCB board to reduce the ground noise.
RθJA is a system thermal resistance from junction to ambient air. As such, it is a system parameter with the
following components:
• RθJC (the thermal resistance from junction to case, or in this example the power pad or heat slug)
• Thermal grease thermal resistance
• Heat sink thermal resistance

SLES242A – DECEMBER 2009 – REVISED DECEMBER 2009
The thermal grease thermal resistance can be calculated from the exposed power pad or heat slug area and the
thermal grease manufacturer's area thermal resistance (expressed in °C-in 2/W or °C-mm2/W). The approximate
exposed heat slug size is as follows:
• DRV8422, 44-pin TSSOP …… 0.053 in2 (34 mm 2)
• DRV8432, 36-pin PSOP3 …… 0.124 in2 (80 mm 2)
The thermal resistance of thermal pads is considered higher than a thin thermal grease layer and is not
recommended. Thermal tape has an even higher thermal resistance and should not be used at all. Heat sink
thermal resistance is predicted by the heat sink vendor, modeled using a continuous flow dynamics (CFD) model,
or measured.
Thus the system RθJA = RθJC + thermal grease resistance + heat sink resistance.
See the TI application report, IC Package Thermal Metrics (SPRA953A), for more thermal information.
DRV8412 Thermal Via Design Recommendation
Thermal pad of the DRV8412 is attached at bottom of device to improve the thermal capability of the device. The
thermal pad has to be soldered with a very good coverage on PCB in order to deliver the power specified in the
datasheet. The figure below shows the recommended thermal via and land pattern design for the DRV8412. For
additional information, see TI application report, PowerPad Made Easy (SLMA004B) and PowerPad Layout
Guidelines (SOLA120).
