Introduction

www.ti.com

The DRV8811_RD customer EVM is the complete solution to evaluating the DRV8811 microsteppingbipolar stepper driver. It houses a USB link to provide easy control from a PC computer, an MSP430microcontroller that interprets serial commands from the PC and generates control signals to the driverdevice, and the DRV8811 device with access to all signals for a complete evaluation.

The DRV8811 customer EVM uses a combination of terminal blocks and test clips for theapplication/monitoring of power. The only power rail the user must supply is VM for the device’s powerstage. VDD for logic levels is internally generated from the USB connection.

The user must apply VM according to datasheet recommended parameters.

Every pin on the device has been brought out to a test stake. A label on the silkscreen identifies eachsignal.

Three pin jumpers can be configured independently from the other two or three pin jumpers. However, twopin jumpers must either be closed or open. Two pin jumpers (JP2 to JP5) connect the diodes to the motoroutputs and are used under asynchronous rectification (SR = LO).

Figure 1. VREF SELECT Jumper

To configure the VREF SELECT jumper: Figure 1 (a) selects an analog voltage derived from VDD througha voltage divider implemented as a potentiometer R4. Figure 1 (b) selects an analog voltage derived fromthe MSP430’s digital to analog converter channel 0 (DAC0).

Figure 2. DECAY SELECT Jumper

To configure the DECAY SELECT jumper: Figure 2 (a) selects an analog voltage derived from VDDthrough a voltage divider implemented as a potentiometer R6. Figure 2 (b) selects an analog voltagederived from the MSP430’s digital to analog converter channel 1 (DAC1).

There are three ways of connecting the bipolar stepper motor into the DRV8811 EVM: four pin header(J2), four position terminal block (J3) or test clips. Each connection style offers identical connectivity to thedevice’s output terminals. It is recommended, however, to use the header or terminal block, as the teststakes traces are of low current handling capability.

Instructions on how to install the FTDI USB driver on a Windows based computer are detailed in the“USB_Drivers_Install_Readme.pdf” file supplied with the CD inside the USB_Driver folder.

2.3 Running the Windows Application Software

3 Windows Application

Windows Application

The included CD contains a folder titled “Windows Application”. It is recommended for the contents of thisfolder to be copied to any desired folder on the computer. The reason for this is the Settings.ini file will bewritten upon software exit. This action can not take place if the application is run within the CDenvironment.

To run the application, double click the DRV8811_RD_EVM_R1p0.exe application icon found in the samefolder the application was extracted into.

The DRV8811 Windows Application is the software counterpart for the DRV8811 EVM. It is in charge ofconnecting to the MSP430 microcontroller via a USB connection which in turn selects the proper logicstate for the DRV8811 control signals.

The graphical user interface (GUI) has been designed to allow for all of the DRV8811 device’sfunctionality to be tested without having to intervene with the hardware, except for the proper configurationof jumpers when needed.

Figure 3 shows the DRV8811_RD_EVM_R1p0.exe main screen. It contains menu items to configure andenable/disable the serial port, frames with GPIO control for the DRV8811 control signals, stepper motorcontrol for start/stop and speed, and current/decay control through the MSP430 DACs.

3.1 Menu

3.2 DRV8811 GPIO Control Signals

www.ti.com

Windows Application

The menu at the top of the application offers a series of quick options for how the COM port is to behave.1. File →Exit - Terminates the application2. Settings →Port - Selects from COM1 to COM4. Default is COM4.The serial port's actual port number defaults to what we have specified on“USB_Drivers_Install_Readme.pdf”. However, any port between COM 1 and COM 4 are equallyusable.

3. Connect: Opens the serial port. When this menu item is pressed, its caption changes to “Disconnect”.4. Disconnect: Closes the serial port. When this menu item is pressed, its caption changes to “Connect”.

After opening the application, the order of events should be:1. Go to Settings →Port and choose the COM port where the USB virtual COM port device has beenconfigured to work. If the COM port is 4, then this step can be skipped as application defaults toCOM4.

2. Press Connect. If the port is available, the menu changes the “Connect“ caption to “Disconnect“. PressDisconnect to disable the serial communications.

< 1> < 4> < 0> should return on the text box as an acknowledgement. The text box also changes from red togreen, as shown in Figure 4 .

The application is ready for use.

Once the application is communicating with the interface board, the control signals can be actuated bychecking or un-checking check boxes on the Signals frame.

A checked checkbox translates to a HI level on the respective control signal. A un-checked checkboxtranslates to a LO level on the respective control signal.

If the DRV8811 EVM has been configured to accept VREF analog voltages through the MSP430microcontroller interface (JP1 is set to INT), then the slider bar on the Current Control frame can be usedto set the VREF voltage.

Figure 6. Curent Control Frame

The MSP430F1612 12-bit DAC channel 0 is connected to the DRV8811 VREF analog input. Changing theDAC digital value from 0 to 4095, changes the analog voltage at the VREF/DECAY pin from 0 V to 2.5 Vrespectively. See Equation 1 .

Where VREF is the output voltage and DAC_VALUE is a number from 0 to 4095.

If the DRV8811 EVM has been configured to accept DECAY analog voltages through the MSP430microcontroller interface (JP6 is set to INT), then the slider bar on the Current Control frame can be usedto set the DECAY voltage.

Figure 7. Current Control Frame

The MSP430F1612 12 bit DAC channel 1 is connected to the DRV8811 DECAY analog input. Changingthe DAC digital value from 0 to 4095, changes the analog voltage at the DECAY pin from 0 V to 2.5 Vrespectively. See Equation 2 .

Where DECAY is the output voltage and DAC_VALUE is a number from 0 to 4095.

The Windows Application, in conjunction with the MSP430F1612 microcontroller, utilizes a series of timersto coordinate the rate of steps sent to the device. Once all the control signals are configured accordingly(ENABLEn = LO, SLEEPn = HI, RESETn = HI; DIR, USM0 and USM1 can be HI or LO depending onpreferred mode of operation; SRn must be L, if external diodes are not populated), the motor is ready tobe turned.
