Q: TPS65023 VRTC by 1116450

Does the TPS65023 need a capacitor on VRTC (pin 16) if VRTC is not used (floating)?


A: Re: TPS65023 VRTC by 1129650

Yes, the capacitor is needed on VRTC even if it is unused. VRTC may oscillate if the capacitor is not present. 

Also note, VRTC is an input to the comparator for /RESPWRON.
