PRODUCTION DATA
Some applications require stall detection to notify the microcontroller of a locked-rotor/stall condition. A stall could be caused by one of two things: unintended mechanical blockage or the load reaching an end-stop in a constrained travel path. The DRV8214 supports hardware stall detection by comparing the IPROPI pin voltage to the VREF pin voltage or 500 mV as applicable.
