Power Supply Recommendations

The DRV8840 is designed to operate from an input voltage supply (VM) range from 8.2 V to 45 V. The device has an absolute maximum rating of 47 V. A 0.1-μF ceramic capacitor rated for VM must be placed at each VM pin as close to the DRV8840 as possible. In addition, a bulk capacitor must be included on VM.
