What are the key features of DRV8833CRTE?

  • Dual H-bridge drives two independent DC motors or one bipolar stepper motor
  • Wide 2.7-V to 10.8-V supply range compatible with 3.3-V, 5-V, and 9-V systems
  • 1.5-A peak current per H-bridge for medium-power motor drive applications
  • Compact 16-pin QFN package with exposed thermal pad for improved heat dissipation
  • Integrated protection features including overcurrent, thermal shutdown, and undervoltage lockout

What is DRV8833CRTE used for?

The DRV8833CRTE is ideal for compact robotics platforms, toy motors, and small appliance actuators where two brushed DC motors or one bipolar stepper motor must be driven from a single chip. Its wide supply voltage range from 2.7-V to 10.8-V makes it compatible with battery-powered designs using single-cell lithium-ion or 4-AA battery packs. The exposed-pad QFN package provides sufficient thermal performance for continuous 1-A per bridge operation in confined enclosures.

Frequently Asked Questions

What motors can the DRV8833CRTE drive?

The DRV8833CRTE can drive two independent brushed DC motors simultaneously using its dual H-bridge architecture, or it can control one bipolar stepper motor by combining both bridges. Each H-bridge supports up to 1.5-A peak current with a supply voltage range of 2.7-V to 10.8-V, covering a wide range of small to medium motor loads.

What protection features are integrated in the DRV8833CRTE?

The DRV8833CRTE includes integrated overcurrent protection, thermal shutdown, and undervoltage lockout (UVLO) to safeguard the device and connected motors during fault conditions. These built-in protections reduce external component requirements and improve system reliability in robotics, automation, and consumer electronics applications.

What package does the DRV8833CRTE use and how does thermal management work?

The DRV8833CRTE comes in a 16-pin QFN (Quad Flat No-Lead) package with an exposed thermal heat-sink pad on the bottom. Soldering this pad to a copper pour on the PCB significantly improves heat dissipation, enabling sustained operation at higher current levels. The compact QFN footprint is ideal for space-constrained motor control boards.

What is the supply voltage range of the DRV8833CRTE?

The DRV8833CRTE operates with a supply voltage from 2.7-V to a maximum of 10.8-V, and it also operates with a logic supply range of 0-V to 5.5-V for control inputs. This flexibility allows integration with 3.3-V microcontrollers and 5-V systems while powering motors from separate 6-V, 7.4-V, or 9-V battery packs.

Is the DRV8833CRTE RoHS compliant?

Based on product data, the DRV8833CRTE has a Pb-free code of 'No', indicating this specific variant may not be lead-free. Designers requiring RoHS-compliant versions should verify availability of alternative part numbers within the DRV8833 family or consult the Texas Instruments product page for compliant variants before specifying for new designs.
