2.3 EVM Hardware Quick-Start
This section describes the steps to prepare the DRV8363-Q1EVM for first motor spin-up. This section assumes the default jumper positions mentioned above are used.
- Plug the DRV8363-Q1EVM onto the upper position of the LAUNCHXL-F280049C board.
- Connect motor phase connections to the respective MOTA/MOTB/MOTC inputs on J13, making sure to match A, B, and C.
- Connect the Hall sensor connections, Hall power, and ground to J11. Make sure that Hall A, B, and C are in the correct order.
- Connect the provided micro-USB cable to the LAUNCHXL-F280049C.
- Populate JP1, JP2, and JP3 on LAUNCHXL-F280049C to maintain Launchpad receives power from USB.
- Connect VMOTOR and GND to connector J10. A low current limit of 300mA on the VMOTOR supply is recommended for first power-up to verify the EVM is connected correctly. If there is no issue upon power-up, then the current limit can be raised to allow for current based on your motor specifications. VMOTOR range is 8V to 48V.
- Start the GUI per the instructions below in Section 3.1.
