HR8825 from Jiaxing Heroic Elec Tech, in a HTSSOP-28-EP. Pinout and pin descriptions extracted from the manufacturer datasheet by ds2sf; symbol, footprint, and 3D from KiCad-official CAD.
Pinout
| Pin | Name | Type | Function |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | CP1 | passive | Charge pump flying capacitor terminal 1. Connect a 0.1uF capacitor between CP1 and CP2 to build the high-side gate drive charge pump. |
| 2 | CP2 | passive | Charge pump flying capacitor terminal 2. Pairs with CP1 via a 0.1uF capacitor for internal charge pump generation. |
| 3 | VCP | power_out | Charge pump reservoir / high-side gate drive supply. Connect a 0.1uF capacitor from VCP to VM. |
| 4 | VMA | power_in | A-bridge motor supply, 8V to 32V. All VM pins must be tied together and bypassed to GND (≥100uF bulk plus 0.1uF ceramic close to pin). |
| 5 | AOUT1 | output | A-bridge H-bridge output 1. Connects to one terminal of the stepper motor A-phase coil. Rated ±2.5A (positive current is defined as AOUT1 → AOUT2). |
| 6 | ISENA | passive | A-bridge current-sense return. Connect the A-bridge sense resistor Rs from ISENA to GND; VTRIP is regulated to VAVREF/5. |
| 7 | AOUT2 | output | A-bridge H-bridge output 2. Connects to the other terminal of the stepper motor A-phase coil. |
| 8 | BOUT2 | output | B-bridge H-bridge output 2. Connects to one terminal of the stepper motor B-phase coil. Positive current direction is BOUT1 → BOUT2. |
| 9 | ISENB | passive | B-bridge current-sense return. Connect the B-bridge sense resistor Rs from ISENB to GND. |
| 10 | BOUT1 | output | B-bridge H-bridge output 1. Connects to the other terminal of the stepper motor B-phase coil. |
| 11 | VMB | power_in | B-bridge motor supply, 8V to 32V. Must be tied to VMA - all VM pins connect to the same supply. |
| 12 | AVREF | input | A-bridge current-set reference input, 1V to 3.5V (VREF absolute max -0.3 to 4V). Chopping current ICHOP = VAVREF / (5·Rs). Typically tied to BVREF and to V3P3OUT via a divider with 0.1uF bypass. |
| 13 | BVREF | input | B-bridge current-set reference input, 1V to 3.5V. Usually tied to AVREF so both bridges share the same reference. |
| 14 | GND | power_in | Device ground. All GND pins and the exposed thermal pad must be tied to the PCB ground plane. |
| 15 | V3P3OUT | power_out | Internal 3.3V LDO output (3.1V min / 3.5V max, up to 1mA load). Bypass with 0.1uF to GND; may be used to bias VREF and pull-ups. |
| 16 | nRESET | input | Active-low reset input. Low resets internal logic and sets the microstep indexer to HOME while disabling H-bridges; STEP inputs are ignored. Internal 100kΩ pull-down. |
| 17 | nSLEEP | input | Active-low sleep input. Low enters low-power sleep (H-bridges, charge pump and V3P3OUT disabled). On rising edge wait tWAKE ≈ 1ms before applying STEP. Internal 100kΩ pull-down. |
| 18 | nFAULT | output | Open-drain fault output. Pulled low on overcurrent (OCP) or thermal shutdown (TSD). Requires external pull-up (e.g. 10kΩ to V3P3OUT). VOL = 0.35V typ at 5mA. |
| 19 | DECAY | input | Decay-mode select. Tied low = slow-rise mixed-decay fall (~25us); left floating or high = full mixed decay. External pull-down resistor (22k-100k) trims decay time. Internal 22kΩ pull-down. |
| 20 | DIR | input | Direction control input. Sets the direction advanced by the internal microstep indexer on each STEP rising edge. Internal 100kΩ pull-down. |
| 21 | nENBL | input | Active-low output enable. Low enables the H-bridge outputs; high tri-states the outputs while the indexer continues to track STEP. Internal 100kΩ pull-down. |
| 22 | STEP | input | Step clock input. Rising edge advances the microstep indexer by one step. fSTEP up to 250kHz; tWH/tWL ≥ 1.9us. Internal 100kΩ pull-down. |
| 23 | NC | unconnected | No connect. Leave floating (no defined function). |
| 24 | MODE0 | input | Microstep resolution select bit 0. MODE[2:0] selects full/1/2/1/4/1/8/1/16/1/32-step operation per Table 1. Internal 100kΩ pull-down. |
| 25 | MODE1 | input | Microstep resolution select bit 1. See MODE0. Internal 100kΩ pull-down. |
| 26 | MODE2 | input | Microstep resolution select bit 2 (MSB). See MODE0. Internal 100kΩ pull-down. |
| 27 | nHOME | output | Open-drain HOME status output. Asserted low when the internal microstep indexer is at HOME position. Requires external pull-up. |
| 28 | GND | power_in | Device ground (second GND pin). Must be tied together with pin 14 GND and the exposed thermal pad (PPAD). |
| PPAD | GND | power_in | Exposed thermal pad on the underside of the ETSSOP-28 package. Must be soldered to the ground plane for both electrical and thermal performance. |
