DRV8825
SLVSA73F –APRIL 2010–REVISED JULY 2014
DRV8825 Stepper Motor Controller IC
1 Features 3 Description
The DRV8825 provides an integrated motor driver
1
• PWM Microstepping Stepper Motor Driver
solution for printers, scanners, and other automated
– Built-In Microstepping Indexer
equipment applications. The device has two H-bridge
– Up to 1/32 Microstepping
drivers and a microstepping indexer, and is intended
to drive a bipolar stepper motor. The output driver
• Multiple Decay Modes
block consists of N-channel power MOSFET’s
– Mixed Decay
configured as full H-bridges to drive the motor
– Slow Decay
windings. The DRV8825 is capable of driving up to
2.5 A of current from each output (with proper heat
– Fast Decay
sinking, at 24 V and 25°C).
• 8.2-V to 45-V Operating Supply Voltage Range
A simple STEP/DIR interface allows easy interfacing
• 2.5-A Maximum Drive Current at 24 V and
to controller circuits. Mode pins allow for configuration
