EVM Hardware Quick-Start

This section describes the steps to prepare the DRV8300Dxxx-EVM for first motor spin-up. This section assumes the default jumper positions mentioned above are used.

  1. Ensure that the isolation jumpers JP1/JP2/JP3 on the LAUNCHXL-F280049C have been removed.
  2. Plug the DRV8300Dxxx-EVM onto the lower position of the LAUNCHXL-F280049C board.
  3. Connect motor phase connections to their respective MOTA/MOTB/MOTC inputs on J5, making sure to match A, B, and C.
  4. Connect the Hall sensor connections, Hall power, and ground to J7. Make sure that Hall A, B, and C are in the correct order.
  5. Connect the provided micro-USB cable to the LAUNCHXL-F280049C.
  6. Connect PVDD and GND to connector J4. A low current limit of 300 mA on the PVDD supply is recommended for first power-up to ensure the EVM is connected correctly. If there is no issue upon power-up, the current limit can be raised to allow for current based on your motor specifications.
  7. Start the GUI per the instructions below in the software section.
