Pin Failure Mode Analysis (Pin FMA)

This section provides a Failure Mode Analysis (FMA) for the pins of the TLV3603-Q1 (DCK 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 (seeTable 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
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

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

  • Each pin is assessed individually
  • All other pins are configured correctly for device functionality
  • LE /HYST is assumed logic high when not being assessed
