Is there a way to implement a DC motor driver with the DR8701E as a PWM?

Hello,

In my company, I inherited a project using the DR8701E driving a DC motor with a simple motor ON and motor OFF function. We finally need to control the torque and speed of the motor therefore the system needs a PWM function. The DR8701P (which has the PWM function) would have been better to use but several of our products are already using the DR8701E. At that point, we don't want to change the hardware but only the software to update easily these products.


Do you think we can use the DR8701E with a PWM function by monitoring the EN and PH inputs as it was IN1 and IN2 of the DR8701P?

Or is there a way to use the DR8701E as a PWM motor driver?

I am pretty sure that it won't work as DR8701E and P don't have the same input control but I would need some confirmation.

Thank you.
