Because of the low R
of the power MOSFETs
DS(on)
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 DRV8312/32 require two power supplies, one at 12 V for GVDD and VDD, and another up to 50 V for PVDD. The DRV8312/32 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 DRV8312/32 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 DRV8312/32 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 half bridge drivers with different power supply voltage requirements.

THEORY OF OPERATION

POWER SUPPLIES

To facilitate system design, the DRV8312/32 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. SYSTEM POWER-UP/POWER-DOWN

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 The DRV8312/32 do not require a power-up power-stage output is low, the bootstrap capacitor is sequence. The outputs of the H-bridges remain in a charged through an internal diode connected high impedance state until the gate-drive supply between the gate-drive power-supply pin (GVDD_X) voltage GVDD_X and VDD voltage are above the and the bootstrap pin. When the power-stage output undervoltage protection (UVP) voltage threshold (see is high, the bootstrap capacitor potential is shifted the Electrical Characteristics section of this data above the output potential and thus provides a sheet). Although not specifically required, holding suitable voltage supply for the high-side gate driver. RESET_A, RESET_B, and RESET_C in a low state In an application with PWM switching frequencies in while powering up the device is recommended. This the range from 10 kHz to 500 kHz, the use of 100-nF allows an internal circuit to charge the external ceramic capacitors (X5R or better), size 0603 or bootstrap capacitors by enabling a weak pulldown of 0805, is recommended for the bootstrap supply. the half-bridge output. These 100-nF capacitors ensure sufficient energy storage, even during minimal PWM duty cycles, to Powering Down 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.

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 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 DRV8312/32 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 DRV8312/32 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).
SEQUENCE

Powering Up

The DRV8312/32 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_A, RESET_B and RESET_C low during power down to prevent any unknown state during this transition.

ERROR REPORTING

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.
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).
Table 1. Protection Mode Signal Descriptions
FAULT OTW DESCRIPTION
0 0 Overtemperature warning and
(overtemperature shut down or overcurrent shut down or undervoltage protection) occurred
0 1 Overcurrent shut-down or GVDD undervoltage
protection occurred 1 0 Overtemperature warning 1 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 internal VREG (3.3 V) is provided on

Bootstrap Capacitor Under Voltage Protection

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 DRV8312/32 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.
For applications with lower than 10 kHz switching frequency and not to trigger BST_UVP protection, a larger bootstrap capacitor can be used (e.g., 1 uF cap for 800 Hz operation). When using a bootstrap cap larger than 220 nF, it is recommended to add 5 ohm resistors between 12V GVDD power supply and GVDD_X pins to limit the inrush current on the internal bootstrap diodes.

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

Overcurrent (OC) Protection

The DRV8312/32 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 The DRV8312/32 contain advanced protection protection through mode selection pins: circuitry carefully designed to facilitate system cycle-by-cycle (CBC) current limiting mode and OC integration and ease of use, as well as to safeguard latching (OCL) shut down mode. the device from permanent failure due to a wide range of fault conditions such as short circuits, overcurrent, overtemperature, and undervoltage. The DRV8312/32 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.
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, and C, respectively.

Figure 6 illustrates cycle-by-cycle operation with high It should be noted that a properly functioning

side OC event and Figure 7 shows cycle-by-cycle overcurrent detector assumes the presence of a operation with low side OC. Dashed lines are the proper inductor or power ferrite bead at the operation waveforms when no CBC event is triggered power-stage output. Short-circuit protection is not and solide lines show the waveforms when CBC guaranteed with direct short at the output pins of the event is triggered. In CBC current limiting mode, power stage. when low side FET OC is detected, devcie will turn off the affected low side FET and keep the high side Overtemperature Protection 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.

The DRV8312/32 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 In OC latching shut down mode, the CBC current limit the device junction temperature exceeds 150°C and error recovery circuitries are disabled and an (nominal), the device is put into thermal shutdown, overcurrent condition will cause the device to resulting in all half-bridge outputs being set in the shutdown immediately. After shutdown, RESET_A, high-impedance (Hi-Z) state and FAULT being RESET_B, and / or RESET_C must be asserted to asserted low. OTSD is latched in this case and restore normal operation after the overcurrent RESET_A, RESET_B, and RESET_C must be condition is removed. asserted low to clear the latch.
For added flexibility, the OC threshold is programmable using a single external resistor connected between the OC_ADJ pin and AGND pin. See Table 2 for information on the correlation between programming-resistor value and the OC threshold.
Undervoltage Protection (UVP) and Power-On
Reset (POR)
The UVP and POR circuits of the DRV8312/32 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

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

Three reset pins are provided for independent control of half-bridges A, B, and C. When RESET_X is asserted low, two power-stage FETs in half-bridges X are forced into a high-impedance (Hi-Z) state.
A rising-edge transition on reset input allows the device to resume operation after a shut-down fault. E.g., when half-bridge X has OC shutdown, a low to high transition of RESET_X pin will clear the fault and FAULT pin. When an OTSD occurs, all three RESET_A, RESET_B, and RESET_C need to have a low to high transition to clear the fault and reset

DIFFERENT OPERATIONAL MODES Figure 11 shows six steps trapezoidal scheme with

The DRV8312/32 support two different modes of operation:
1. Three-phase (3PH) or three half bridges (HB) with CBC current limit
2. Three-phase or three half bridges with OC latching shutdown (no CBC current limit)
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.
Figure 8 and Figure 9 show the three-phase
application examples, and Figure 10 shows how to connect to DRV8312/32 with some simple logic to accommodate conventional 6 PWM inputs control.
We recommend using complementary control scheme for switching phases to prevent circulated energy flowing inside the phases and to make current limiting feature active all the time. Complementary control scheme also forces the current flowing through sense resistors all the time to have a better current sensing and control of the system.
hall sensor control and Figure 12 shows six steps trapezoidal scheme with sensorless control. The hall sensor sequence in real application might be different than the one we showed in Figure 11 depending on the motor used. Please check motor manufacture datasheet for the right sequence in applications. In six step trapezoidal complementary control scheme, a half bridge with larger than 50% duty cycle will have a positive current and a half bridge with less than 50% duty cycle will have a negative current. For normal operation, changing PWM duty cycle from 50% to 100% will adjust the current from 0 to maximum value with six steps control. It is recommanded to apply a minimum 50ns to 100 nS PWM pulse at each switching cycle at lower side to properly charge the bootstrap cap. The impact of minimum pulse at low side FET is pretty small, e.g., the maximum duty cycle is 99.9% with 100ns minimum pulse on low side. RESET_Xpin can be used to get channel X into high impedance mode. If you prefer PWM switching one channel but hold low side FET of the other channel on (and third channel in Hi-Z) for 2-quadrant mode, OT latching shutdown mode is recommended to prevent the channel with low side FET on stuck in Hi-Z during OC event in CBC mode.
The DRV8312/32 can also be used for sinusoidal waveform control and field oriented control. Please check TI website MCU motor control library for control algorithms.

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.

Current Requirement of 12V Power Supply

The DRV8312/32 require a 12V power supply for GVDD and VDD pins. The total supply current is pretty low at room temp (less than 50mA), but the current could increase significantly when the device temperature goes too high (e.g. above 125°C), especially at heave load conditions due to substrate current collection by 12V guard rings. So it is recommended to design the 12V power supply with current capability at least 5-10% of your load current and no less than 100mA to assure the device performance across all temperature range.

VREG Pin

The VREG pin is used for internal logic and should not be used as a voltage source for external circuitries. The capacitor on VREG pin should be connected to AGND.

VDD Pin

The transient current in VDD pin could be significantly higher than average current through VDD 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.
No external pull up resistor or 3.3V power supply is needed for 3.3V logic. The OTW pin has an internal pullup resistor connecting to an internal 3.3V to reduce external component count. For 5V logic, an external pull up resistor to 5V is needed.

FAULT Pin

The FAULT pin reports any fault condition resulting in device shut down. No external pull up resistor or 3.3V power supply is needed for 3.3V logic. The FAULT pin has an internal pullup resistor connecting to an internal
3.3V to reduce external component count. For 5V logic, an external pull upresistor to 5V is needed.

OC_ADJ Pin

For accurate control of the oevercurrent protection, the OC_ADJ pin has to be connected to AGND through an OC adjust resistor.

PWM_X and RESET_X Pins

It is recommanded to connect these pins to either AGND or GND when they are not used, and these pins only support 3.3V logic.

Mode Select Pins

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) could be shorted, so the load inductance might not present in the system anymore; the current in short condition 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 kicks in. So a ferrite bead or inductor is recommended to utilize the short circuit protection feature in DRV8312/32. With an external inductor 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 short circuit conditions in the DRV8312. But other ferrite beads that have similar frequency characteristics can be used as well.
For higher power applications, such as in the DRV8332, 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:
(1)
Where Toc_delay = 250 nS, Ipeak = 15 A (below abs max rating). 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.

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) should be placed close to PVDD_X 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 pins 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.

T1: PVDD decoupling capacitors C37, C43, and C46 should be placed very close to PVDD_X pins and ground return path.
T2: VREG decoupling capacitor C33 should be placed very close to VREG abd AGND pins. T3: Clear the space above and below the device as much as possible to improve the thermal spreading. T4: Add many vias to reduce the impedance of ground path through top to bottom side. Make traces as wide as
possible for ground path such as GND_X path.

THERMAL INFORMATION

The thermally enhanced package provided with the DRV8332 is designed to interface directly to heat sink using a thermal interface compound in between, (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.
R
is a system thermal resistance from junction to ambient air. As such, it is a system parameter with the
qJA
following components:
R
Thermal grease thermal resistance
Heat sink thermal resistance 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-in2/W or °C-mm2/W). The approximate exposed heat slug size is as follows:
DRV8332, 36-pin PSOP3 …… 0.124 in2(80 mm2) The thermal resistance of a thermal pad 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 R See the TI application report, IC Package Thermal Metrics (SPRA953A), for more thermal information.

DRV8312 Thermal Via Design Recommendation

Thermal pad of the DRV8312 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 DRV8312. For additional information, see TI application report, PowerPad Made Easy (SLMA004B) and PowerPad Layout Guidelines (SOLA120).

Eco Plan - The planned eco-friendly classification: Pb-Free (RoHS), Pb-Free (RoHS Exempt), or Green (RoHS & no Sb/Br) - please check http://www.ti.com/productcontent for the latest availability
information and additional product content details.
TBD: The Pb-Free/Green conversion plan has not been defined. Pb-Free (RoHS): TI's terms "Lead-Free" or "Pb-Free" mean semiconductor products that are compatible with the current RoHS requirements for all 6 substances, including the requirement that
lead not exceed 0.1% by weight in homogeneous materials. Where designed to be soldered at high temperatures, TI Pb-Free products are suitable for use in specified lead-free processes. Pb-Free (RoHS Exempt): This component has a RoHS exemption for either 1) lead-based flip-chip solder bumps used between the die and package, or 2) lead-based die adhesive used between the die and leadframe. The component is otherwise considered Pb-Free (RoHS compatible) as defined above. Green (RoHS & no Sb/Br): TI defines "Green" to mean Pb-Free (RoHS compatible), and free of Bromine (Br) and Antimony (Sb) based flame retardants (Br or Sb do not exceed 0.1% by weight in homogeneous material)
