Hi,
I am using the TPS7A3001 in a dual power supply with a TPS65130 switching regulator and a TPS7A4901 in the positive output. The circuit was designed for +/-6V output. The switching regulator delivers +/-7V as input to the LDOs. I noticed that when changing the TPS65130 input between 3 and 6 V the output of the TPS7A3001 suddenly drops from the normal -6V to about -3V. This happens always at the same input voltage. I measured the TPS7A3001 input but it remains stable at -7V. When I checked the input by a scope I saw some oscillations at the switching reg output of about 50mV at 10kHz which may result from suboptimal design. These ascillations seem to trigger the voltage drop. I found that the problem disappeared after removing the capacitor at the NR/SS pin. Lower or higher values than the recommended 10nF didn't help.
I need the noise reduction capacitor. Does anyone know why this voltage change happens?
