Please see the included schematic, parts list, and board layouts I used for implementing motor drivers
with the DRV8818 chip. This board includes header pins for connecting a microprocessor in the future.
Currently I have only populated one of the four circuits to validate the design. I began testing the design
by configuring the I/O pins via the H1 header.

Table 2 – Motor Wiring
Pre Power Up Verifications:
1) Verified power and ground were not shorted.
2) Verified pins on chip were not shorted, mechanical connection, and electrical connection.
3) Verified shorts did not exist in unexpected locations due to population errors.
I/O Configuration:
1) Vm equal to 15V
2) Vcc equal to 5V
3) SLEEPn equal to 5V
4) USM0 equal to ground
5) USM1 equal to ground
6) ENABLEn equal to ground
7) STEP was left opened and I was planning on connecting it to Vcc to rotate the motor shaft.
8) RESETn equal to 5V
9) SRn equal to ground
10) Vref equal to 3.3V
11) DECAY set equal to 3.3V
12) DIR equal to ground
13) HOME was left opened as it’s to be monitored
Test:
I tried toggling the STEP to 5V to see if the motor would rotate. The motor did not rotate and the shaft
was able to be manually turned.
After the Test:
1) Verified motor windings still had continuity.
2) Verified no visible sign of a damaged component due to heating.
3) Re-verified the schematic and board layout.
