Product Overview
The DRV8873 is a Texas Instruments H-Bridge motor driver in the Power_Management category. It is specified for a recommended VM operating supply range of 4.5 to 38 V and provides 10 A peak H-bridge motor drive capability. The device supports PWM input operation up to 100 kHz on EN/IN1 and PH/IN2 inputs.
The power stage includes high-side and low-side FET on-resistance values of 75 mΩ typical at TJ=25°C and 125 mΩ typical, 155 mΩ maximum at TJ=150°C, with VM=13.5 V. Combined low-side plus high-side on-resistance is listed as 150 mΩ at TJ=25°C and 250 mΩ at TJ=150°C.
The package is a 24-pin HTSSOP PowerPAD with a 7.70 mm x 4.40 mm body. Thermal data includes 27.8°C/W junction-to-ambient resistance and 1.0°C/W junction-to-case bottom resistance. Logic and control specifications include sleep, disable, nSLEEP reset, charge pump, input thresholds, pull resistances, dead time, body diode voltage, and nFAULT output voltage.
