7.3.2.1 6x PWM Mode (DRV8311S-Q1 and DRV8311H-Q1 variants only)

In 6x PWM mode, each half-bridge supports three output states: low, high, or high-impedance (Hi-Z). To configure DRV8311H-Q1 in 6x PWM mode, connect the MODE pin to AGND or connect the MODE pin to 47 kΩ tied to AGND. To enable 6x PWM mode in DRV8311S-Q1 configure the MODE bits with PWM_MODE = 00b or 01b. The corresponding INHx and INLx signals control the output state as listed in Table 7-3.
