How It Works

An extension of your team

BaseFrame handles the tedious parts of component selection so your team can focus on building great hardware.

Natural Language

Find components by describing what you need.

Search across millions of electronic components using plain English, right in Slack or Teams, to get their latest prices, availability, and technical attributes. No more hunting through distributor catalogs or memorizing part numbers. Just ask BaseFrame like you'd ask a colleague.

Give me the stock and price for each drv8838 variant available

BaseFrame

I found 2 DRV8838 variants available:

LCSCPartStockPrice
C86667DRV8838DSGR2,024$0.501
C544802DRV8838DSGT128$0.726
No Black Box

See the reasoning, not just the answer.

BaseFrame shows you exactly what it searched, what it found, and how it connected the dots. Verify the logic yourself, or trust the process knowing it's all visible.

Goal

The user was trying to gather detailed technical information, datasheets, diagrams, and related resources for the component DRV8838DSGR from Texas Instruments.

My Approach

  • •I searched for component details to identify the manufacturer and package type.
  • •I retrieved datasheet URLs to access official documentation.
  • •I searched for relevant diagrams, including block diagrams, pinouts, and typical application circuits.
  • •I looked for specific sections within the datasheet, such as electrical characteristics, temperature range, and application info.
  • •I gathered detailed section content on parameters like VCC, sleep mode, junction temperature, and absolute maximum ratings.
  • •I searched for critical keywords to find relevant datasheet pages for electrical specs and application details.
  • •I sent summarized tables of data and images of diagrams to provide visual understanding.

Outcome

I successfully gathered comprehensive technical documentation and visual resources for the DRV8838DSGR component, including datasheets, diagrams, and critical parameter specifications.
