4 Pin Failure Mode Analysis (Pin FMA)
This section provides a failure mode analysis (FMA) for the pins of the TCAN1472-Q1 and TCAN1472V-Q1. 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 VCC (see Table 4-5)
- Pin short-circuited to VBAT (see Table 4-6)
- Pin short-circuited to VIO (Table 4-7)
Table 4-2 through Table 4-7 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
| 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. |

device behavior when pins are shorted to the thermal pad depends on which net is
connected to the thermal pad.
