TS5A3160: Power leakage after switching

Part Number: TS5A3160
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: CC1310

 

Hi,

I am exploring TS5A3160 in one of my application for sensor power switch.

when I set PIN6 in HIGH, pin4 output 3.6v(@40uA), but when I set PIN6 in low, pin4 output 0.9v(@40uA) .

so , I link pin3 to GND, but when I set PIN6 in low, pin4 output 0v(@410uA) .

I hope that when PIN6 is set to LOW , pin4 should be 0v and the current should be zero .

What could be the reason behind it

Thanks


  • Stone,

    When I set PIN6 in HIGH, pin4 output 3.6v(@40uA), but when I set PIN6 in low, pin4 output 0.9v(@40uA) .

    In this case you are leaving pin 3 floating and I would expect there voltage on COM pin 4 due to the leakage current but not 40uA.

     

    so , I link pin3 to GND, but when I set PIN6 in low, pin4 output 0v(@410uA) .

    I expect the 0V since the pin3 is no longer floating but I do not expect 410uA

     

    One thought might be that the FET between NO and COM is not completely turning off.  Do you know the voltage level on the C-sensor-V node when it is logic low?   

     

    How are you measuring the current on COM pin? 

     

    Thank you,

  • Adam,

    Thank you very much for your reply and support.

    To facilitate testing, I replaced the sensor directly with a resistor(R1:5.2K)

    MCU is CC1310 , the power supply is 3.621 V.

    The current measured is on R1.

    The measurement results are as follows:

    PIN6 is high(3.518v), PIN4 is 3.62V(@0.693mA) ,PIN3 is about 0.085V

    PIN6 is Low(0.0001v), PIN4 is 1.246V(@0.238mA), PIN3 is 1.246V


    I measured five circuit boards and the results were the same.

    In addition, I only welded the TS5A3160 for test. The results were as above at the beginning, but the measured results were normal after some welding, which could be shut down normally without leakage of electricity.

    I don't know why.

    Best Regards,

    Stone,
  • Adam,

    I found the problem. A pin is connected to VDD_Sensor through the pull-up resistance. This pin is set to high level after reading the value.

    Thank you again.

    Stone.
