LM5020: Vout don't stable under 60 Celsius

Part Number: LM5020

Hello

My customer used LM5020 to convert 54V to 12V/1.5A,but one of five board find Vout was jump to 4V from 12V,then jump back to 12V,and circulate constantly.the Vout waveform show below picture.

Test Condition:

Environment Temperture: 60 Celsius

Input Voltage: 54V, External SMPS(dosen't use POE supply )

Load :output power for system, about 1.5A 

LM5020 measured chip top temp is 95.4 celsius, the key compoments temperture as show below, it seems the temp still have enough temp margin

Fault pheomenon: Vout jumped, please see waveform

Failed Condition is Sporadic,under 60 Celsius,find this fault within 3 days, but under 65 celsius, it easy to find this fault. and always the same board; when decrese the temp from 60 celsius, the fault will disappear

  • Hi Fandy,

    Could you post a high resolution schematic? I cannot easily read the part numbers. Also please monitor COMP pin and CS pin voltage. Please zoom in around the Vout falling edge.

    Thanks,

  • Hi Fandy,

    Is the issue resolved? The schematic that you posted earlier is illegible. Please post a high resolution one for review. Let me close it here by assuming the issue is already resolved. You can reopen it by following a post.
