Overview

The DRV8353SMRTAT is a highly integrated 100V gate driver designed for three-phase brushless DC (BLDC) motor applications. It features a smart gate drive architecture that optimizes MOSFET switching while reducing EMI and eliminates the need for external gate resistors. The 'S' variant includes an SPI interface for detailed configuration and fault reporting, alongside three integrated current shunt amplifiers for precise torque control.

Why Choose This Part

This driver simplifies system design by integrating three current shunt amplifiers and a linear regulator, reducing the overall bill of materials. The smart gate drive architecture allows for adjustable slew rate control to manage EMI and includes hardware-level shoot-through prevention. It also offers robust protection including VDS overcurrent monitoring and thermal shutdown to ensure long-term reliability in harsh industrial environments.

Applications

E-Bikes and E-Scooters
High-voltage support up to 100V makes it ideal for 48V and 72V battery-powered light electric vehicles.
Battery-Powered Power Tools
Compact 6x6mm WQFN package and integrated shunt amplifiers save PCB space in handheld cordless drills and saws.
Industrial Robotics
Provides precise motor commutation and protection features required for collaborative robot joints and automated guided vehicles.
Drones and Multi-Rotors
Utilizes 100% PWM duty cycle support via a high-side charge pump for maximum motor efficiency and performance.

Getting Started

Start development with the DRV8353RS-EVM evaluation module, which provides a complete reference platform for testing motor performance. Configure the device settings, such as gate drive current and shunt amplifier gain, using the SPI interface via a microcontroller like a C2000 or MSP430. Ensure the 40-WQFN thermal pad is properly soldered to a large ground plane to manage heat dissipation at high voltages.
