TPS63002 easily damage

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: TPS63002, TPS63001, TPS63000

Hi All,

[Problem]

TPS63002 usually damage in mixed 3.3 and 5.0 circuit. Our design include Graphics LCD module supply by TPS63002 (5.0 volt) and 3.3V MCU (5.0 tolerance I/O) supply by TPS63001 (3.3 volt). VINA, EN and PS/SYNC of TPS63002 is connected to a MCU's GPIO for control ON/OFF by software. Once power on everything work fine for a few minutes then current flow higher and higher until it damage.

[Steps Needed to Recreate Problem]

Power on and wait for a few minute and/or power cycle for many times

Please see attachment for our design block diagram.

What's mistake?, please advise.

Thanks in advance,

Suriyan

    Hello, it seems that you have the same problem has us,

    We are also using a TPS63002 to generate 5Volts from 2 'AA' batteries. Some chips consume a lot of current ( more than 450mA under 3volts! and generate only 1.8Volts )  but others don't.

    Have you solved your problem and/or what are solution have you taken ?

     

    Is there an hardware  problem in this chip ?

    By the way, we are using the SP/SYNC pin to control power consumption of this chip and at startup the pin is LOW is that a problem ?

    Thanks for your feedback,

    François

    Your block diagram looks fine.  Most likely, this is a layout related issue where the part is over stressed and absolute maximum ratings are exceeded.  This is why the parts break after repetitive use--the electrical overstress wears down the IC until it breaks.  Could you post your schematic and layout?

    I also recommend ordering the EVM for the TPS63000 and testing that in your circuit.  If it works fine, then the problem is either your component selection or board layout.
