DESCRIPTION
The DRV8824 provides an integrated motor driver solution for printers, scanners, and other automated
equipment applications. The device has two H-bridge drivers and a microstepping indexer, and is intended to
drive a bipolar stepper motor. The output driver block for each consists of N-channel power MOSFET’s
configured as full H-bridges to drive the motor windings. The DRV8824 is capable of driving up to 1.6-A of output
current (with proper heatsinking, at 24 V and 25°C).
A simple step/direction interface allows easy interfacing to controller circuits. Pins allow configuration of the
motor in full-step up to 1/32-step modes. Decay mode is programmable.
Internal shutdown functions are provided for overcurrent protection, short circuit protection, undervoltage lockout
and overtemperature.
The DRV8824 is available in a 28-pin HTSSOP package with PowerPAD™ (Eco-friendly: RoHS & no Sb/Br).
