DRV8353: DRV8353: DRV8353S: VGLS damage when Enable device

Part Number: DRV8353

Hello expert,

We are facing strange issues with the DRV8353S.

The problem we are facing is:
Two drivers on two different custom PCBs were damaged for an unknown reason. For the first time to power PCB. When we apply VM to those drivers and enable them using ENABLE pin for the first time, VGLS was pulled down from 11.9V to 4.0V. When we disable the device, VGLS still down to 4.0V.

Our question:

We have attached the schematics. The levels on the digital part are 3.3V.

  • Do you see any potential schematics issue or weakness that can lead to this damages?
  • Have you any other ideas that can help us?

Thank you in advance.

Regards,
Songzhen Guo
