3.1 DRV8762-Q1 EVM GUI Software

This section details the features of the EVM GUI Software. The GUI is written in GUI Composer and is available on TI's development software gallery.

DRV8762-Q1EVM DRV8762-Q1EVM GUIFigure 3-1 DRV8762-Q1EVM GUI

The GUI connects and programs the C2000 MCU on the LAUNCHXL-F280049C board when launched, assuming the board is connected/powered.

Once the hardware is connected, the FAULT Status and Voltage Monitors match the EVM. If these do not match, remove EVM power and recheck the setup.

To spin the motor:

  1. Launch the GUI located on dev.ti.com/gallery.
  2. Take the DRV8762-Q1 out of sleep mode by toggling nSLEEP to WAKE.
  3. Select "Yes" on the Pop-up to configure the device in 2x PWM mode
  4. Verify that the DRV8762-Q1 reports no faults (Fault LED green on GUI, no red nFAULT LED on the EVM). The GUI reports the VMOTOR/GVDD voltage.
  5. Set the Ramp Rate of the Duty Cycle and set the PWM Duty Cycle using the slider or text input.
  6. The motor spins.
