DRV8873-Q1: Driving solenoids

Part Number: DRV8873-Q1
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: DRV8873H-Q1EVM, DRV8873, DRV8262

Tool/software:

I'm trying to find information on using DRV8873-Q1 to drive a solenoid.

I ordered an DRV8873H-Q1EVM and am especially interested in using this board to clamp a solenoid. I'm also curious if I can use this board to pulse the solenoid on and off at a frequency less than 100 Hz.

All helpful information is appreciated, and I believe I have read all the documentation TI supplies about solenoids, but likely missed helpful articles.

In the meantime, I will install the DRV8873H-Q1EVM UI program on my computer and see if that helps me figure out how to clamp a solenoid using this program.

Also, how long can DRV8873H-Q1EVM hold a current that is greater than 10 amps, if that is possible. I see its peak amp rating is 10 amps, but is that an intermittent peak? How long of a pulse?

I am new to solenoids and solenoid control, so please be understanding. 

Thanks!

Josh
