TPS54260: Strange behavior from TPS54260

Part Number: TPS54260

Tool/software:

Hi all.  I am using the above buck power supply to generate a 3.3V rail with inputs ranging from 10V~28V.  Below is the schematic:

There are several downstream buck regulators using a separateTI switcher to generate 1.0, 1.2, and 1.8V.  There is also a switch that connects this 3.3V from the TPS54260 to a load. (FPGA + ethernet switch)

When I enable some of these downstream supplies, the voltage on the 3.3V collapses to roughly 1V or less.  I do not measure a short on the circuit board on any of these downstream supplies, and the current from my input voltage leads me to believe there is not a short on the PCB either.  I calculate that the external 13V supply is providing <2A under these conditions, so I think the chip should be able to support this.  But I wonder if I'm tripping an internal current limit internally when this happens.  

Any ideas?

Thank you, 

Geoff
