10.1 Layout Guidelines

The DRV10866 is simple to design with a single-layer or two layer printed-circuit-board (PCB) layout. During layout, the strategy of ground copper pour is very important to enhance the thermal performance. Use vias on the thermal pad to dissipate heat away from the IC. Refer to Figure 18 for an example of PCB layout.

  • Place VCC, GND, U, V, and W pins with thick traces because high current passes through these traces.
  • Place the 2.2-μF capacitor between VCC and GND, and as close to the VCC and GND pins as possible.
  • Connect the GND under the thermal pad.
  • Keep the thermal pad connection as large as possible, both on the bottom side and top side. It should be one piece of copper without any gaps.
