TPIC6A595: EOS at common area.

Part Number: TPIC6A595

We have multiple occurrence of this Relay driver (TPIC6A595) failure.

EOS was observed in a common area after undergoing FA. 

Would TI be willing to elaborate on the failure?

  • Which pin on the TPIC was over stressed? The EOS is new Pin5 and Pin6 which are PGND but almost the entire circuit is between them?
  • Application circuit is the same with recommended application based from datasheet. And from my analysis our application didn't reach maximum ratings, please help with this. 
  • Anything else that would help us understand the excessive stresses this component experienced?

We want to know the true root cause and corrective action regarding this matter.

I can send application circuit and FA findings, but not willing to post on a public forum.

Regards,

Rhed

  • Hi Rhed,

    I'm sorry for replying this so late, i will discuss with our designers on this device and give you feedback within this week.

    At the same time, i will send you a friendship invitation then you can share the FA findings with me privitely.
