DRV8871: Does not limit in-rush current

Part Number:DRV8871

Hi there,

Our motor has steady state current of about 0.6A, but large start-up current >4A.

After reading the datasheet, we had assumed the DRV8871 would limit the in-rush current to the ITRIP current:

"The ability to limit current to a known level can significantly reduce the system power requirements and bulk capacitance needed to maintain stable voltage, especially for motor startup and stall conditions."

We are instead tripping the OCP and seeing a 3ms pulse wave form.

Is the DRV8871 only used for applications where the start-up current is less than Iocp ~3.6A?
