TPS65219: # of power-up Re-try

Part Number: TPS65219

Hi,

We can find the following sentence on the datasheet P.57.   I seem when two retries are failed, TPS65219 stops the power-up.

For every detected Shut-Down fault, irrespective if prior to the sequence due to unsuccessful discharge, during the power-up-sequence or in ACTIVE or STBY state, the retry counter (RETRY_COUNT in POWER_UP_STATUS_REG register) is incremented. The device attempts two retries to power-up. If both fail, a power-cycle on VSYS is required to reset the retry counter.

Also, P.130, Description of RETRY_COUNT is as follows:  On this sentence, when three retries are failed, TPS65219 stops the power-up.

Reads the current retry count in the state machine. If RETRY_COUNT = 3 and is not masked, device does not power up.

How many times does TPS65219 retry power-up?  Two times or three times?

Although I think answer is three times, I want to confirm it.   Please advise us.

Thanks and best regards,
M.HATTORI.

  • Hi Hattori-san,

    Thank You for using E2E. If MASK_RETRY_COUNT is configured as 0x0, the device retries up to two times. For example, if you capture the output voltage of a rail that has a fault during power-up, you will see three rising edge. These include the first attempt plus the two retries. Let us know if this answers your question. 

    Thanks,
