Table 4-2 Pin FMA for Device Pins Short-Circuited to Ground
Pin Name Pin No. Description of Potential Failure Effects Failure Effect Class
ADDR 1 Pullup resistor on the ADDR pin to VDD: ADDR is stuck low. No I2C communication with the device is possible because of change in I2C address configuration. B
Pulldown resistor on the ADDR pin to GND: ADDR is stuck low. No effect. Normal operation. D
ALERT/RDY 2 ALERT/RDY is stuck low. No or incorrect alert or data-ready indication to host. B
GND 3 No effect. Normal operation. D
AIN0 4 AIN0 is stuck low. Conversion results for multiplexer channel combinations using AIN0 are corrupted, unless AIN0 is tied to GND anyway. B
AIN1 5 AIN1 is stuck low. Conversion results for multiplexer channel combinations using AIN1 are corrupted, unless AIN1 is tied to GND anyway. B
AIN2 6 AIN2 is stuck low. Conversion results for multiplexer channel combinations using AIN2 are corrupted, unless AIN2 is tied to GND anyway. B
AIN3 7 AIN3 is stuck low. Conversion results for multiplexer channel combinations using AIN3 are corrupted, unless AIN3 is tied to GND anyway. B
VDD 8 The device is unpowered and not functional. Observe that the absolute maximum ratings for all pins of the device are met, otherwise device damage is plausible. A
SDA 9 SDA is stuck low. No I2C communication with the device is possible. B
SCL 10 SCL is stuck low. No I2C communication with the device is possible. B
Table 4-3 Pin FMA for Device Pins Open-Circuited
Pin Name Pin No. Description of Potential Failure Effects Failure Effect Class
ADDR 1 The state of the ADDR input is undetermined. I2C address of the device is undetermined. I2C communication with the device is not possible if the host assumes a different I2C address than the device is set to. B
ALERT/RDY 2 No alert or data-ready indication to the host is possible. B
GND 3 Device functionality undetermined. The device can be unpowered or connected to ground internally through an alternate pin ESD diode and power up. B
AIN0 4 The state of the AIN0 input is undetermined. Conversion results for multiplexer channel combinations using AIN0 are undetermined. B
AIN1 5 The state of the AIN1 input is undetermined. Conversion results for multiplexer channel combinations using AIN1 are undetermined. B
AIN2 6 The state of the AIN2 input is undetermined. Conversion results for multiplexer channel combinations using AIN2 are undetermined. B
AIN3 7 The state of the AIN3 input is undetermined. Conversion results for multiplexer channel combinations using AIN3 is undetermined. B
VDD 8 Device functionality is undetermined. The device is unpowered if all external analog and digital pins are held low. The device can power up through internal ESD diodes to VDD if voltages above the device power-on reset threshold are present on any of the analog or digital pins. B
SDA 9 No I2C communication with the device is possible. B
SCL 10 No I2C communication with the device is possible. B
