LM3481-Q1: lm3481 abnormal working conditions when outputs 5V drop down but duty cycle keep the same

Part Number: LM3481-Q1
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: LM3481

Hi team,

Below circuit is LM3481 external schematic. Customer feedback when 5Vout put drops down, the duty cycle remains the same. 

CH1: RESET CH2: Vin CH3: DR CH4:5V out

CH1:Vgs  CH2:Vr_sense  CH4: Output

CH3: is Duty cycle

Can you help advise how this happened? 

  • Hi Zoe,

    Thanks for using the e2e forum.

    Do you have additional details on the input voltage and load conditions of the application?
    Based on their waveform for Vr_sense, it looks like the device is triggering overcurrent protection.

    Best regards,
    Niklas
