Table 4-2 Pin FMA for Device Pins Short-Circuited to Ground
Pin Name Pin No. Description of Potential Failure Effects Failure Effect Class
Output 1 Regulation is not possible, the device operates at current limit. The device can cycle in an out of thermal shutdown. B
Sense 2 Regulation is not possible, the device operates at current limit. B
Shutdown 3 Proper regulation without the ability to shutdown device. B
GND 4 No effect. Normal operation. D
Error 5 Proper regulation without the ability to error output. B
VTAP 6 (Fixed) Output is pulled low, leading to undesired fixed output. B
(Adjustable) No effect. Normal operation. D
Feedback 7 (Fixed) Output is pulled low, leading to undesired fixed output. B
(Adjustable) Output is pulled low, leading to an undesired output. B
Input 8 Power is not supplied to the device. System performance depends on upstream current limiting. B
Table 4-3 Pin FMA for Device Pins Open-Circuited
Pin Name Pin No. Description of Potential Failure Effects Failure Effect Class
Output 1 The device output is disconnected from the load. B
Sense 2 Unable to sense the output, leading to an unknown output state B
Shutdown 3 The device is in the low-power shutdown state if left floating. B
GND 4 There is no current loop for the supply voltage. The device is not operational and does not regulate. B
Error 5 No effect. Normal operation. D
VTAP 6 (Fixed) There is no connection to feedback, leading to an undesired output. B
(Adjustable) No effect. Normal operation. D
Feedback 7 There is no connection to feedback, leading to an undesired output. B
(Adjustable) Input to device error amplifier is left floating, leading to an undesired output. B
Input 8 Power is not supplied to the device. B
Table 4-4 Pin FMA for Device Pins Short-Circuited to Adjacent Pin
Pin Name Pin No. Shorted to Description of Potential Failure Effects Failure Effect Class
Output 1 Sense No effect. Normal operation. D
Sense 2 Shutdown Output pin is driven low. B
Shutdown 3 GND Proper regulation without the ability to shutdown device. B
Error 5 VTAP The device state is unknown, leading to an inaccurate reading of the output. B
VTAP 6 Feedback (Fixed) No effect. Normal operation. D
(Adjustable) Unable to use external feedback resistors, leading to an undesired output. B
Feedback 7 Input Device can become damaged as feedback is low voltage and input is high voltage. A
