LMR14020 burn out issue

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: LMR14020

Dear Sir 

When I re-insert the 40V power supply quickly ,LMR14020 will damage

Do you have any experience of this issue ??

Thanks 

  • It sounds like an input voltage transient.  You may need an Al. input cap to help damp the input voltage transient.

    How are you applying the input voltage for the test?  Are you using a fast switch? Or "hot plugging"?

    Can you monitor the input transient?  How high does it go?  Can you send a scope shot of the input voltage during the test ?

    What is the damage?  Is anything else damaged?  Is the Schottky OK?

    Can you send a snap shot of you layout?
