Overview

The DRV8412DDW is a high-performance dual H-bridge motor driver from Texas Instruments designed to drive two DC motors or one stepper motor. It supports a wide load voltage range from 0V to 52.5V and features an integrated power stage with low Rds(on) MOSFETs for efficient operation. The device includes comprehensive protection features such as programmable cycle-by-cycle current limiting and thermal shutdown.

Why Choose This Part

This driver offers high efficiency with 110mOhm typical Rds(on) and eliminates the need for external snubber or Schottky diodes. Its programmable current limiting protects both the IC and the motor from stall conditions, while the 44-PowerTSSOP package provides excellent thermal dissipation for high-current loads.

Applications

Brushed DC Motor Drive
Driving two independent brushed DC motors with up to 52.5V supply voltage for industrial automation.
Bipolar Stepper Motors
Precise control of four-wire stepper motors in robotics and office automation equipment.
Inductive Load Driving
Driving high-current solenoids and relays where integrated flyback protection and current monitoring are required.
