SLVAFV5 July 2024 TLV62095
This document contains the Pin failure mode analysis (pin FMA) information for the TLV62095.
Figure 1 shows the device functional block diagram.
This section provides a failure mode analysis (FMA) for the pins of the TLV62095. The failure modes covered in this document include the typical pin-by-pin failure scenarios:
Table 2 through Table 5 also indicate how these pin conditions can affect the device as per the failure effects classification in Table 1.
Class | Failure Effects |
---|---|
A | Potential device damage that affects functionality. |
B | No device damage, but loss of functionality. |
C | No device damage, but performance degradation. |
D | No device damage, no impact to functionality or performance. |
Table 2 is showing the TLV62095 pin diagram. For a detailed description of the device pins, see the Pin Configuration and Functions section in the TLV62095 4-A High Efficiency Step Down Converter with DCS-Control Data Sheet.
The exposed thermal pad is connected to AGND.
