7.1 Overview

The DRV8803 device is an integrated 4-channel low side driver solution for any low side switch application. The integrated overcurrent protection limits the motor current to a fixed maximum. Four logic inputs control the low-side driver outputs which consist of four N-channel MOSFETs that have a typical RDS(on) of 500mΩ (PWP and DW package) and 400 mΩ (DYZ Package). A single power input VM serves as the device power and is internally regulated to power the internal low side gate drive. Motor speed can be controlled with pulse-width modulation from 0kHz to 100kHz. The device outputs can be disabled by bringing nENBL pin high. The thermal shutdown protection lets the device automatically shut down if the die temperature exceeds a TTSD limit. UVLO protection will disable all circuitry in the device if VM drops below the undervoltage lockout threshold.
