ZHCS276F September 2011 – February 2025 DRV8818
PRODUCTION DATA
The DRV8818 has thermal shutdown (TSD) as described previously. If the die temperature exceeds approximately 150°C, the device is disabled until the temperature drops to a safe level.
Any tendency of the device to enter thermal shutdown is an indication of either excessive power dissipation, insufficient heatsinking, or too high ambient temperature.
