The smart-loop architecture uses actuator feedback by monitoring the back-EMF behavior of the actuator. The level of back-EMF voltage can vary across actuator manufacturers because of the specific actuator construction. Auto calibration compensates for this variation and also performs scaling for the desired actuator according to the specified rated voltage and overdrive clamp-register settings. When auto calibration is performed, a 100% signal level at any of the DRV2624 input interfaces supplies the rated voltage to the actuator at steady-state. The feedback allows the output level to increase above the rated voltage level for automatic overdrive and braking, but the output level does not exceed the programmable overdrive clamp voltage.
