In my design LMZ31710 is used to generate 5V from 15V. schemetic and PCB layout is as below.
when there is no load or the load is light (~1A), the output is normal as designed. However, when the load is heavier (~3A), the output is near 0V.
I tested the VADJ pin in both situation. in light-load situation, VADJ=0.59V; while in the other situation, VADJ~0V.
