The DRV81545 is a four-channel low-side switch driver that operates from 4.5V to 55V and supports a wide range of load currents. The device integrates four low-side switches with a RDS(on) of 235mΩ, each with a freewheeling diode to the VCLAMP pin. This feature allows the user to either recirculate current or connect an external TVS for inductive load turn-off.

The device can be controlled through a hardware GPIO interface. Each channel features individual overtemperature protection, and an analog current limit adjustable with an external resistor on the ILIM pin. There is an optional cut-off duration (COD) configuration which limits the duration of a current-limiting condition on the respective channel, helping to prevent damage to the device or the load. Faults are indicated on a fault output pin (nFAULT).

DRV81545EVM — DRV81545 evaluation module

The DRV81x4x evaluation module (EVM) allows for evaluation of the DRV81545, DRV81646, and DRV81646DGQ devices. The EVM has been programmed to work out of the box and begin driving loads right away. To simplify control and configuration, the EVM is accompanied by a graphical user interface (GUI) (...)
