Pin Failure Mode Analysis (Pin FMA)

This section provides a failure mode analysis (FMA) for the pins of the UCC1524x-Q1 (DWN-36 package). The failure modes covered in this document include the typical pin-by-pin failure scenarios:

  • Pin short-circuited to ground (see Table 4-2)
  • Pin open-circuited (see Table 4-3 )
  • Pin short-circuited to an adjacent pin (see Table 4-4)
  • Pin short-circuited to supply (see Table 4-5 )

Table 4-2 through Table 4-5 also indicate how these pin conditions can affect the device as per the failure effects classification in Table 4-1.

Table 4-1 TI Classification of Failure Effects
ClassFailure Effects
APotential device damage that affects functionality
BNo device damage, but loss of functionality
CNo device damage, but performance degradation
DNo device damage, no impact to functionality or performance

Following are the assumptions of use and the device configuration assumed for the pin FMA in this section:

  • The device is configured as Dual Adjustable Output Configuration diagram in the Typical Application sestion of the datasheet
  • VIN is considered as the supply pin for primary-side pins
  • GNDP is considered as the ground pin for primary-side pins
  • VDD is considered as the supply pin for secondary-side pins
  • VEE is considered as the ground pin for secondary-side pins
