Part Number: LM5143-Q1

Dear Texas Instruments!

We use 2 LM5143QRWGRQ1 devices as a 4 phase single voltage regulator.

Is a phase loss detectable and reported by PG pin? What happens in case of phase loss?

Thank you in advance!

Hi Tibor,

The PG function just looks at the FB voltage (i.e. Vout). It does not monitor phase loss specifically (unless EN goes low to initiate the phase shedding).

Regards,

Tim
