WARNING This EVM is meant to be operated in a lab environment only and is not considered by TI to be a finished end-product fit for general consumer use This EVM must be used only by qualified engineers and technicians familiar with risks associated with handling high voltage electrical and mechanical components, systems and subsystems.
Getting Familiar with the Kit Kit Contents The DRV830x EVM is usually available packaged as a full solution kit: • MCU controlCARD • DRV830x EVM board with slot for the controlCARD • USB Cable • USB/DVD with CCStudio IDE, GUI, documentation, and link to project software distribution •...
voltage level for the high-side gate driver. A bootstrap capacitor under voltage protection circuit (BST_UVP) will start under this circumstance to prevent the potential failure of the high-side MOSFET. In this circumstance, both the FAULT and OTW pins should pull low and the device should self-protect itself.
Powering the Board The board is separated into two power domains*, the low voltage Controller Power domain that powers the controller and the logic circuit present on the board, and the medium voltage power delivery line that is used to carry the medium voltage and current like the DC power for the Inverter also referred to as DC Bus.

Optimizing Sense Circuitry Overview Proper resolution of motor signals is critical to the performance of any control system, but especially those with software observers attempting to replace the precision of an absolute encoder. Because the DRV83xx are built to work at over 50 Vdc-bus, the resolution of the voltage sensing is not as precise as you would like for motors <...

Phase Voltage Filter Feedback • See 5.2.4 of the User’s Guide • The voltage filter pole is needed by the FAST estimator to allow an accurate detection of the voltage feedback. The filter should be low enough to filter out the PWM signals, and at the same time allow a high speed voltage feedback signal to pass through the filter •...
