It drives brushed DC motors bidirectionally using its two half-bridge outputs, or configures as a unipolar stepper motor driver. The PWM interface keeps the control simple — feed in a PWM signal and direction logic, and the internal charge pump handles the high-side gate drive. With a 3.5 A continuous output rating and a load supply range spanning 4.5 V to 37 V, this part covers the majority of 12 V and 24 V industrial motor applications. ## 3.5 A output and 37 V load rail — thermal and supply headroom The 3.5 A continuous current rating is the headline number for sizing the motor load and the PCB copper area. At full load, the RDS(on) of the integrated NMOS FETs dissipates heat through the exposed thermal pad on the 16-HTSSOP package — the datasheet layout recommendation for the PowerPAD footprint is worth following to keep junction temperature under control. The 4.5 V to 37 V load supply range means the same part works on a 12 V automotive battery line (with cold-crank dips) or a 24 V industrial bus. The logic supply runs separately from 0 V to 5.5 V, so a 3.3 V or 5 V microcontroller can talk directly to the PWM and enable pins without level shifters. ## Temperature grade and deployment environment Rated for -40°C to 125°C ambient, the DRV8876NPWPT is specified for the industrial temperature range. That covers outdoor telecom cabinets, factory-floor motor drives, and engine-bay-adjacent automotive modules. The junction temperature derating at the top end matters when running near 3.5 A continuously — the thermal pad and airflow in the enclosure determine whether you stay inside the SOA. ## Lifecycle and sourcing posture TI lists the DRV8876NPWPT as Active on the product status. No end-of-life notices are in the channel. That means it is a safe choice for new designs and production ramps — no LTB risk to budget for.","metaTitle":"DRV8876NPWPT motor driver, 3.5 A half-bridge, 16-HTSSOP","metaDescription":"TI DRV8876NPWPT brushed DC/stepper motor driver, 3.5 A output, 4.5-37 V load, PWM interface, -40 to 125°C, 16-HTSSOP.","metaKeywords":null},"attributes":{"series":null,"packageCase":null,"mountingType":null,"rohsStatus":"ROHS3 Compliant","productStatus":"Active","categoryPath":["Analog & Data Acquisition"],"specifications":{"Package":"Tape & Reel (TR); Cut Tape (CT)","Function":"Driver - Fully Integrated, Control and Power Stage","Interface":"PWM","Technology":"NMOS","Applications":"DC Motors, General Purpose, Stepper Motors","Mounting Type":"Surface Mount","Package / Case":"16-PowerTSSOP (0.173\\\", 4.40mm Width)","Voltage - Load":"4.5V ~ 37V","lifecycle_stage":"eol_hot","Current - Output":"3.5A","Voltage - Supply":"0V ~ 5.5V","Motor Type - AC, DC":"Brushed DC","Motor Type - Stepper":"Unipolar","Output Configuration":"Half Bridge (2)","Operating Temperature":"-40°C ~ 125°C (TA)","Supplier Device Package":"16-HTSSOP"}},"commercial":{"minOrderQty":null,"leadTime":null,"referencePrice":"$3.04","stockQuantity":0,"priceTiers":[{"qty":1,"price":"$3.04000","currency":"USD"},{"qty":5,"price":"$2.82800","currency":"USD"},{"qty":10,"price":"$2.34900","currency":"USD"},{"qty":25,"price":"$1.95760","currency":"USD"},{"qty":50,"price":"$1.74000","currency":"USD"},{"qty":100,"price":"$1.65300","currency":"USD"},{"qty":250,"price":"$1.56600","currency":"USD"},{"qty":500,"price":"$1.39200","currency":"USD"},{"qty":750,"price":"$1.34851","currency":"USD"},{"qty":1250,"price":"$1.30500","currency":"USD"}]},"links":{"datasheetUrl":"https://cdn.icboms.com/7617a94c6f659691117c526736282229.pdf","sourceUrl":null},"ai":{"faq":[{"question":"Is DRV8876NPWPT a brushed or stepper motor driver?","answer":"It drives brushed DC motors (bidirectional via the two half-bridges) and unipolar stepper motors.
