TPS653860-Q1: ESM feature is not working properly

Part Number: TPS653860-Q1

Tool/software:

Hello,

I configured the ESM in TPS653860-Q1PMIC chip, we have some safety tests immediate after initialization.

ESM Safety Test: Ensuring ESM feature in the chip working properly or not on every power on reset of the PMIC

NVM settings of PMIC already configured to required ESM setting and using the PWM mode.

During safety test, setting some registers like ESM_INT_MASK, ESM_DLY1_INT_MASK and ESM_DLY2_INT_MASK this bit setting to 1 (not to change the PMIC state to reset MCU state during this test) and then setting the ESM_START bit to 1, but I observed that ESM_START bit is resetting to zero immediate after setting the ESM_START bit. because of this the ESM Error bits are not setting to 1.

is this expected behaviour or do I need do something differently to achieve this test successfully?

Part Number is PO386008QDCARQ1BB

Thank you!!
