The maximum power dissipation of the DRV602PW is 2.5W. However, it's recommended to keep the junction temperature below 150°C to ensure reliable operation.
The gain setting depends on the specific application requirements. A higher gain setting provides a higher output voltage swing, but may also increase noise and distortion. A lower gain setting provides a lower output voltage swing, but may also reduce noise and distortion. Consult the datasheet and application notes for guidance on selecting the optimal gain setting.
To minimize electromagnetic interference (EMI) and ensure optimal performance, it's recommended to follow a star-grounding layout, keep analog and digital traces separate, and use a solid ground plane. Consult the datasheet and application notes for more detailed layout and routing guidelines.
To filter out noise and distortion, you can use external filters such as RC filters or active filters. The DRV602PW also has an internal filter that can be enabled to reduce noise and distortion. Consult the datasheet and application notes for more information on filtering options.
To ensure stable operation, it's recommended to decouple the power supply with a 10uF ceramic capacitor and a 1uF ceramic capacitor in parallel, placed as close to the DRV602PW as possible. Consult the datasheet and application notes for more detailed power supply decoupling guidelines.
