DRV8428RTER
Texas Instruments · Stepper Motor Driver · WQFN-16-EP(3x3)
DRV8428RTER from Texas Instruments, in a WQFN-16-EP(3x3). Pinout and pin descriptions extracted from the manufacturer datasheet (extract_pins, cross-checked by a second model); symbol, footprint, and 3D from KiCad-official CAD.
Pinout
| Pin | Name | Type | Function |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | AOUT1 | output | Winding A output. Connect to stepper motor winding. |
| 2 | AOUT2 | output | Winding A output. Connect to stepper motor winding. |
| 3 | BOUT2 | output | Winding B output. Connect to stepper motor winding. |
| 4 | BOUT1 | output | Winding B output. Connect to stepper motor winding. |
| 5 | GND | power_in | Device ground. Connect to system ground. |
| 6 | DVDD | power_in | Logic supply voltage. Connect a X7R, 0.47-μF to 1-μF, 6.3-V or 10-V rated ceramic capacitor to GND. |
| 7 | VREF | power_in | Current set reference input. Maximum value 3 V; DVDD can be used to provide VREF through a resistor divider. |
| 8 | M0 | input | Microstepping mode-setting pin. Sets the step mode with internal pulldown resistor. |
| 9 | DECAY/TOFF | input | Decay-mode and off-time setting pin. See Section 7.3.5 for details. |
| 10 | M1 | input | Microstepping mode-setting pin. Sets the step mode with internal pulldown resistor. |
| 11 | STEP | input | Step input. A rising edge causes the indexer to advance one step with internal pulldown resistor. |
| 12 | DIR | input | Direction input. Logic level sets the direction of stepping with internal pulldown resistor. |
| 13 | EN/nFAULT | bidirectional | Logic low to disable device outputs; logic high to enable. Also used for fault indication output, pulled logic low in fault condition. |
| 14 | nSLEEP | input | Sleep mode input. Logic high to enable device; logic low to enter low-power sleep mode with internal pulldown resistor. An nSLEEP low pulse clears faults. |
| 15 | VM | power_in | Motor power supply. Connect to motor supply voltage and bypass to PGND with a 0.01-µF ceramic capacitor plus a bulk capacitor rated for VM. |
| 16 | PGND | power_in | Power ground. Connect to system ground. |
| 17 | EP | passive | Exposed pad (from the footprint; not named in the datasheet pin table). |
