DRV8434PWPR

Texas Instruments · Stepper Motor Driver · HTSSOP-28

DRV8434PWPR from Texas Instruments, in a HTSSOP-28. 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 VCP power_out Charge pump output; connect an X7R 0.22µF 16V ceramic capacitor between VCP and VM.
2 VM power_in Motor supply voltage, 4.5 V to 48 V for normal DC operation (absolute maximum 50 V); bypass to PGND with two 0.01µF ceramic capacitors (one per pin) and a bulk capacitor rated for VM.
3 PGND power_in Power ground; connect to system ground.
4 AOUT1 output Winding A output; connect to a stepper motor winding.
5 AOUT1 output Winding A output; connect to a stepper motor winding.
6 AOUT2 output Winding A output; connect to a stepper motor winding.
7 AOUT2 output Winding A output; connect to a stepper motor winding.
8 BOUT2 output Winding B output; connect to a stepper motor winding.
9 BOUT2 output Winding B output; connect to a stepper motor winding.
10 BOUT1 output Winding B output; connect to a stepper motor winding.
11 BOUT1 output Winding B output; connect to a stepper motor winding.
12 PGND power_in Power ground; connect to system ground.
13 VM power_in Motor supply voltage, 4.5 V to 48 V for normal DC operation (absolute maximum 50 V); bypass to PGND with the same capacitors as pin 2.
14 GND power_in Device ground; connect to system ground.
15 DVDD power_out Internal 5 V logic regulator output (2 mA maximum external load); bypass to GND with a 0.47µF to 1µF X7R 6.3 V or 10 V ceramic capacitor.
16 nFAULT output Open-drain fault indicator that goes low on a fault and requires an external pull-up to 5 V, 3.3 V or 1.8 V (absolute maximum sink current 10 mA).
17 VREF power_in Current-set reference input with a maximum of 3.3 V; DVDD can be divided down through a resistor divider to supply it.
18 M0 input Microstep mode select (tri-level input) with an internal pull-down resistor.
19 TOFF input Quad-level input that sets the PWM off-time and, in smart tune ripple control mode, the ripple current.
20 DECAY1 input Decay mode select (tri-level input); when Hi-Z, smart tune dynamic decay is selected regardless of DECAY0.
21 DECAY0 input Decay mode select (tri-level input) together with DECAY1.
22 M1 input Microstep mode select (quad-level input).
23 STEP input Step input; each rising edge advances the indexer by one step, with an internal pull-down resistor.
24 DIR input Direction input whose logic level sets the step direction, with an internal pull-down resistor.
25 ENABLE input Logic low disables the outputs, logic high enables them; internally pulled up to DVDD, and it also selects the OCP and OTSD response (latched when Hi-Z, automatic retry when high).
26 nSLEEP input Logic high enables the device and logic low puts it in low-power sleep; internal pull-down, a low pulse clears faults, and it must not be tied to DVDD.
27 CPL passive Charge pump negative switch node; connect a VM-rated X7R 0.022µF ceramic capacitor between CPH and CPL.
28 CPH passive Charge pump switch node; connect a VM-rated X7R 0.022µF ceramic capacitor between CPH and CPL.
29 EP passive Exposed pad (from the footprint; not named in the datasheet pin table).
