Hello everyone,
We are using a TPS2553 in our design to monitor an auxiliary supply and make sure that it's not passing over a certain limit. (in our case 155mA) We are not using the -1 (latch off version) which is perfect cause we still want to have a current even if the load is too high. The unit does limit the current at the proper value on the eval board (by changing values of some caps/resistor) as well as the designed board we created base on the eval board results.
Where we have an issue is in regard of the fault pin. The fault get drain on the eval board but not on the unit we created. I was wondering if there is some information I should have read to help figure out why only the fault pin isn't working.
In our desing we have a 100nF input cap only (supply with 3V3), 10uF caps output and a 100k pull up on the fault pin. the input/output voltage are connected to the unit thru traces and not plane like the eval board.
Let me know if you have any suggestion
Thanks
Frederic Jutras
