PGA411-Q1: ABISTF in DEV_STAT4

Part Number: PGA411-Q1

Hello,

I'm having an issue where the ABIST fault is always set in DEV_STAT4. I'm not using EVM. I've got the PGA411-Q1 chip soldered onto a custom board. I've checked the trouble shooting guide and followed the recommended steps. the VEXT pin is planned to be powered during device start up so BOOST_VEXT_MASK doesn't need to be set. But I have tried setting it just in case. I'm also made sure the crystal is 20MHz is connected to the board and is working (see attached picture). I have checked the ECLKSEL pin and it is ~3.3V (which is the logic level I'm using).

Can you please help me with this fault?

  • Hi,

    Did you read any other fault along with ABIST fault? Does this fault gets cleared after a while?

    ABIST fault means any of the following below

    Input short, open, high overvoltage, low overvoltage, and signal integrity comparators
    • Tracking loop comparator
    • Main VCC supply overvoltage and undervoltage comparator
    • Exciter signal-monitor comparator
    • Exciter-amplifier power supply
    • Clock monitor check

    Regards
