ZHCSCV7 August 2014 DRV8833C
PRODUCTION DATA.
The DRV8833C is designed to operate from an input voltage supply (VM) range between 2.7 to 10.8 V. A 10-µF ceramic capacitor rated for VM must be placed as close to the DRV8833C as possible.
Bulk capacitance sizing is an important factor in motor drive system design. It depends on a variety of factors including:
The inductance between the power supply and motor drive system limits the rate current can change from the power supply. If the local bulk capacitance is too small, the system responds to excessive current demands or dumps from the motor with a change in voltage. Size the bulk capacitance to meet acceptable voltage ripple levels.
The data sheet generally provides a recommended value, but system-level testing is required to determine the appropriate-sized bulk capacitor.
