TPS61230: Oscillation on Vin

Expert 3171 points
Part Number: TPS61230

When the power down slew rate is extremely slow (ex: 3.3V -> 2V takes 10ms), it will result in an “oscillation” (or “power ring”).

For instance:

Input power droop below 2.5V -> All the circuits connect to the 61230’s output will be power off -> Input power will goes up slightly since it becomes “light load” at the moment -> Circuit sink current from 61230’s output since its power is back -> Input power droop below 2.5V

 

Is there any way to modify TPS61230’s peripheral to eliminate this issue?
