TPS3839: TPS3839 with load working abnormally

Part Number: TPS3839
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: TLV803E

Hi Team,

My customer find that TPS3839 connect load has been abnormal. Load is a DSP, RST connects DSP directly. The part schematic as follow.

VDD=1.25V

RST=1.25(Without load)

RST=1.02(with load).

The problem is that chip works abnormally with load.  why cause this problem?

  • Hi Gust,

    How much load is being applied to the RST pin?  Can the customer disconnect the load and measure the RST pin?

  • Hi Ben,

    The load is only one and it is a DSP. My customer can disconnect the load and measure the RST pin. RST=1.25(disconnect load) and RST=1.02(connect load).

  • Hi Gust,

    Based on what you said, the load is apparently too high for the push-pull output.   Is the customer open to using an open drain output instead of a push-pull output?  The TLV803E is another option for the customer with the same package and pinout but has an open drain output on /RESET pin.  The /MR pin can just float or tied directly to VDD.
