The DRV8718SQRVJRQ1 is a motor/motion/ignition controller and driver automotive 32-V, 8 channel half-bridge smart gate driver with inline current sense amplifier 56-VQFN -40 to 125 manufactured by Texas Instruments. The driver offers a multitude of features necessary to drive and control brushless and brushed DC and stepper motors. Its features include integrated current sensing capability, programmable over-current protection options, dual PAR; enable and microstep resolutions, and pre-driver outputs. The driver also includes pre-driver outputs to interface with motor driver ICs on the system board, PWM outputs to the motor windings for speed or torque control, diagnostic outputs for thermal overload protection, and a signal input to detect motor motion. This motor driver is suitable for usage in a wide range of automotive applications including vehicle HVAC, electronic mirrors, seat adjust motors, and window lift motors.
