TI spins automotive brushless DC motors with two new motor drivers
Texas Instruments introduced two new automotive motor drivers that support high-performance powertrain applications. The DRV8305-Q1, a highly integrated three-phase brushless DC gate driver, and the UCC27211A-Q1, a high-current half-bridge gate driver, improve system performance and provide design flexibility to meet a diverse range of automotive system requirements. For powertrain applications such as transmission pumps or […]
