I have a control board for a Dewalt 20 volt chain saw and I have a 1A8D ic that I believe to be a current sensor but I can't find a data sheet or any information on the exact part.
3 pins on one side and two on the other.
It may be shunted because I have solid short on the bottom two pins.
That would be the current sensing resistor. It is likely to be around 1 mOhm so it will read as a dead short unless you have a four-wire resistance meter.
