Product details

Dual H-bridge driver for 3.5 A loads

The Texas Instruments DRV8842PWPR is a fully integrated motor driver combining control logic and a power stage in a single 28-PowerTSSOP package. It drives one bipolar stepper motor or two brushed DC motors using two internal N-channel Power MOSFET half-bridges. The parallel interface accepts step/direction or phase/enable signals directly from a microcontroller or indexer without external sequencing logic. Supply and load share a single rail from 8.2 V to 45 V. The output is rated for 3.5 A continuous.

Active, no LTB risk

For dual-sourcing, the DRV8811PWPR is a functional peer with four half-bridges and a lower 1.9 A output — not a pin-for-pin drop-in, but a valid alternative for lower-current designs.

Frequently asked questions

Can DRV8842PWPR be used for bipolar stepper motor control?

Yes. The DRV8842PWPR has two half-bridges configured as a dual H-bridge, which is the standard topology for driving a bipolar stepper motor. The parallel interface accepts step/direction signals.

What are the alternatives or cross-references for DRV8842PWPR?

The DRV8811PWPR is a functional peer from TI with four half-bridges (two full H-bridges) but a lower output current of 1.9 A and a 3 V logic supply. It is not a pin-compatible drop-in but suits lower-power stepper or dual brushed DC applications.
