ADVANCE INFORMATION
The DRV8000-Q1 device integrates multiple types of drivers intended for multiple functions: driving and diagnosing motor (inductive), resistive and capacitive loads. The device features two half-bridge gate drivers, 6 integrated half-bridges, 6 integrated high-side drivers, one external high-side gate driver for heater, one external high-side gate driver for electrochromic charge and one integrated low-side driver for electrochromic load discharge. Each individual driver has PWM input control options, sensing and diagnostics, along with device system protection and diagnostics. There are also dedicated programmable PWM generators for each high-side driver. Proportional current sense pin output is available for all integrated drivers, along with a robust and flexible current shunt amplifier for the gate driver.
The high-side and low-side drivers can be used to drive MOSFETs for special loads such as heating element or electro-chromic elements. These drivers include offline and active diagnostics.
The device provides protection features such as under and over voltage monitors, offline open load and short circuit diagnostics, and zone-based thermal monitoring and shutdown protection.
