Description
The IFX81481ELV is a PWM step-down DC/DC controller with external power switches, packaged in a small PG-
SSOP-14 with exposed pad. The controller is capable to drive external power MOSFETs for load currents up to
10 A. A current limitation feature is provided, which can be implemented either in Rdson configuration, measuring
the voltage over the high-side switch while it is closed, or in a shunt configuration where a shunt resistor above
the high-side switch is used to measure the voltage.
