Part Number: TPS62260

Dear Support,

My customer intend to use our buck with a 3.3V applied on Vout, while it's not powered on the input.

In such a case, when an external voltage is applied on the output, it will duplicate the 3.3V to the input, right?

Are there some limitations or damages that could occur on our buck?

Regards,

Hello,

can you tell me more details about your application? Where is connected EN? Use the device in this condition should be carefully checked. Shouldn't be issue if the Vin is higher than 3.3V, EN tied to gnd and not operate in forced pwm.

Hi Alfonso,

I'll share you the schematic in private.

But in that case, the DC/DC won't be supplied (nothing on Vin).

And Mode pin is set low, so in PFM mode...
