TPS2662: TPS26625 - autoretry after short not workig

Part Number: TPS2662

I want use TPS26625 as protection of power supply for 24mA current loop. Schematic is on next picture. I have problem with short protection. I have load 10mA and start-up is correct (pic1). If I connect short on output (connect VOUT to GND) and disconnect short after it, thou output is still  power off. Auto retry don’t start(pic2).

Start-up (pic1)

yellow - Vin, blue - Vout, pink - Iout

Short (pic2)

yellow - Vin, blue - Vout, pink - Iout

Thanks for help.

  • Hi Jan,

    1. How are you applying short?

    2. Can you zoom in and see if any overshoot on VIN above 24V or any undershoot on VOUT below 0V?

    3. Can you share top part marking?

    4. Is it happening on multiple units?

    5. Just one concern on schematic:

    OVLO falling is below 24V. OVLO falling should be above application voltage of 24V.

  • Hi,

    Firstly, I use direct wire connection (red on schematic). In second case, I used mechanical switch with two resistor (its green one). Both solution has same result, auto-retry not work.
    On VIN I haven’t any overshoot, on output I use TVS in schematic and no undershoot present on  VOUT.

    Marking:

    The part is from TI samples.

    I have two prototype board and both has same problem.


  • And there is answer for point 5:
    I think all is correct: overvotage is 25.44V and undervotage is 22.12V

  • Hi Jan,

    Let me investigate more on this and get back soon.

  • Hi Jan,

    1. What I meant is in your design OVLO rising is 25.44V. That means when VIN goes above 25.44V eFuse is cut off. Now again to turn on eFuse VIN should go below OVLO falling threshold which is 23.265V in your case. Bur since your typical application voltage is 24V so once your system enters into overvoltage and if VIN does not go below 23.265V device will not turn on back. 

    2. I am thinking if VIN is jumping above 25.44V during short , it show as max as 26V and then not going below 23.265 could cause part to latch.

    3. Also can you share your layout for review?

    4. To look for undershoot and overshoot you should probe close to VIN and VOUT pin and observe at zoomed in scale. VOUT scale you can reduce to something 2V/div.

  • Hi Kunal,

    I had wrong setting UV and OV. Everything is all right now.
    Thanks for help
