Table 4-2 Pin FMA for Device Pins Short-Circuited to Ground
Pin Name Pin No. Description of Potential Failure Effects Failure Effect Class
OUT 1 Regulation is not possible, the device operates at current limit. The device can cycle in and out of thermal shutdown. B
NC 2 No effect. Normal operation. D
FB 3 Output voltage is the input voltage minus the dropout voltage because the error amplifier drives the pass transistor gate to the rail. B
PG 4 PG always indicates that the output is not at the target level. B
DNC 5 No effect. Normal operation. D
NC 6 No effect. Normal operation. D
NC 7 No effect. Normal operation. D
GND 8 No effect. Normal operation. D

OUT 1 NC (pin 2) No effect. Normal operation. D
NC 2 FB (pin 3) No effect. Normal operation. D
FB 3 PG (pin 4) PG functionality is lost. The output voltage set by the feedback resistors is incorrect. B
PG 4 DNC (pin 5) The low-dropout regulator (LDO) can possibly not work properly because the PG signal can create errors during LDO start-up. B

NC 11 BIAS (pin 12) No effect. Normal operation. D
BIAS 12 NR/SS (pin 13) VBIAS can potentially violate the absolute maximum rating on the NR/SS pin and cause damage. If this condition is not met, the internal reference cannot get to the target voltage and the output voltage is incorrect. A

FB 3 The FB absolute maximum rating (3.6 V max) can be violated, damaging the device. If VIN < 3.6 V and if there is any loading on the device, the output is approximately 0 V. If there is no load on the device, the output is equal to VIN. A
