This design describes how to drive an automotive trunk lift or rear gate lift.In this design: a brushed BD lift motor and electromagnetic clutch drive mechanisms for a typical gear driven lift. This design includes a warning beeper: LED indicator: and directional control that uses an automotive motor driver and high side switch. A current-controlled gate driver with slew rate control helps improve MOSFET efficiency and decrease switching spikes.This design gives a simple: robust implementation with a low component count and small board space compared to relay solutions.
