I've got TPS73130DBVR on three different PCBs.
Marked T33 purchased from Digikey quantity 10 pieces.
I'm using a 10n C0G capacitor on the NR pin(4).
The ENABLE pin (3) is tied to VIN (1).
I would expect that with no load, the output voltage should be 3.0V (VIN = 3.3V).
But this is what I am getting.
VIN VOUT NR
3.28V 0.97V 1.00V
3.30V 2.37V 2.39V
3.23V 1.91V 2.14V (no cap)(3k3 load)
If I add a 10mA load, VOUT drops very low.
There is no oscillation.
I also tried one on a unloaded PCB to confirm this. Same.
I noticed another discussion based on leakage around the output. I have washed the PCBs with little change in result.
I replace one of the PCBs with a TPS79330DBVR 3.0V Marked PGYI.
VIN VOUT NR
3.28V 2.45V 2.39V
Add a few milli-amp load and VOUT sinks to below 0.3V.
There is no oscillation.
Why are these LDO regulators unable to provide the expected 3.0V output?
Thanks
