Overview

The DRV8876QPWPRQ1 is an AEC-Q100 qualified integrated H-bridge motor driver designed for automotive applications with a peak current capability of 3.5 A and a wide operating voltage up to 40 V. It features integrated current sensing and regulation, eliminating the need for external sense resistors to reduce board space and system cost.

Why Choose This Part

This driver significantly reduces BOM complexity by integrating a proportional current output (IPROPI) and internal current regulation. Its low-power sleep mode and automotive qualification make it ideal for power-sensitive vehicle body electronics where space and thermal efficiency are critical.

Applications

Automotive Electronic Shifters
Reliable control for small brushed DC motors used in vehicle gear selection and actuator mechanisms.
Small HVAC Actuators
Precise position and speed control for air flap actuators and climate control dampers within passenger vehicles.
Robotic Door Latches
High-reliability motor driving for power liftgates, side doors, and locking mechanisms requiring current monitoring.

Getting Started

Evaluation can be performed using the DRV8876EVM module, which allows for quick testing of the driver's PH/EN, PWM, or independent half-bridge control modes. Ensure the thermal pad is properly soldered to a large PCB ground plane to handle the 3.5 A peak current levels safely.
