TPS62160EVM-627: TPS62160

Part Number: TPS62160EVM-627
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: TPS62160

Have tried Eval board for the TPS62160


Board has divider R1 (1.21M) and R2 (383k) and supposed to hold 3.3V regulated output with wide input voltage 4 - 12 V
Was working OK.


When I have tried to change the resistors to R1 ( 562K) and R2 ( 180K) the output is not regulating any more and seems the controller is not working correctly - no regulation at the output any more.

The FB pin show 1.15V instead of 0.8V per divider values.

My questions are:

Does it require specific ratio of the resistors values and smaller ones will not work?
Does use of the smaller resistors can lead to the controller damage?

The current load I am trying is under 500 mA ( supposed to hold 1 A)


Thank you for the help.
