3 Description

The DRV81080-Q1 is an 8-channel high-side driver

with protection and diagnostics. The device is

designed to control relays, LEDs, lamps and motors.

A serial peripheral interface (SPI) with daisy chain

is utilized for control and diagnosis of the loads

and the device. Two input pins with mapping

functionality allow direct control of the outputs. The

device supports Limp Home for fail-safe activation.

Integrated PWM generators enable driving LEDs, and

bulb inrush mode enables driving loads with large

capacitance. Clamp circuits on each output dissipates

the energy during turning OFF inductive loads.

The device supports various protection features

such as undervoltage, overvoltage, short circuit and

open load detection. A high level of integration with

embedded protection and diagnostic features make

the DRV81080-Q1 an excellent choice for automotive

body and powertrain applications.
