Table 4-2 Pin FMA for Device Pins Short-Circuited to Ground
Pin NamePin No.Description of Potential Failure EffectsFailure Effect Class
IN1Device does not turn on. No damage to device.B
IN2Device does not turn on. No damage to device.B
PG3No damage to device. PG functionality does not work. No impact on remaining functionality.B
BIAS4No damage to device. Since band gap and control circuits do not power up, the output voltage is not regulated and remains low at 0V.B
EN5Device does not turn on. No damage to device.B
GND6No Impact. Normal operation.D
SS7Quiescent current increases. Device output remains at 0V. No damage to device.B
FB8Loss of functionality, device does not regulate. Output voltage tracks input voltage and equals VIN minus the dropout. No damage to device.B
OUT9Device hits a current limit state. If the power dissipation is significant, the device hits a thermal shutdown state, and can continue to cycle between the two states. Continuously running the device above the rated current degrades device reliability.A
OUT10Same as pin 9.A
Table 4-3 Pin FMA for Device Pins Open-Circuited
Pin Name Pin No. Description of Potential Failure Effects Failure Effect Class
IN 1 Normal operation. Power supply is still connected to the remaining IN pin (2). There is a small risk that the bond wire connecting to the remaining IN pin can fuse under heavily loaded conditions. A
D
IN 2 Same as pin 1. A
D
PG 3 No damage to device. PG functionality does not work. No impact on remaining functionality. B
BIAS 4 No damage to device. Since band gap and control circuits do not power up, the output voltage is not regulated and remains low at 0V. B
EN 5 Since the voltage floats to an indeterminate value, the device can disable. B
GND 6 With the reference pin floating, the voltages at the remaining pins are also floating and the device is not functional. There is a risk of violating the absolute maximum ratings. A
B
SS 7 No impact. Normal operation. Start-up time defaults to 200μs, approximately. D
FB 8 Loss of functionality. The output pin voltage is not regulated and remains in an indeterminate state. B
OUT 9 No impact. Normal operation. Load is still connected to the remaining OUT pin (10). There is a small risk that the bond wire connecting to the remaining OUT pin can fuse under heavily loaded conditions. A
D
OUT 10 Same as pin 9. A

Pin NamePin No.Shorted toDescription of Potential Failure EffectsFailure Effect Class
IN1INNo impact. Normal operation.D
IN2PGVery high risk of damage to the PG pin and device, resulting from excess current drawn when the PG open drain becomes low impedance.A
PG3BIASVery high risk of damage to the PG pin and device, resulting from excess current drawn when the PG open drain becomes low impedance.A
BIAS4ENDevice remains ON regardless of the enable signal value. B
EN5GNDDevice remains OFF regardless of the enable signal value. B
GND6SSQuiescent current increases. Device output remains at 0V. No damage to device.B
SS7FBThe error amplifier output rails to either one of the supplies, and the LDO output is either at 0V or tracks VIN and equals VIN – dropout.B
FB8OUTVOUT is set to VFB = 0.8V.B
OUT9OUTNo impact. Normal operation.D
OUT10INOutput voltage is not regulated and equals VIN.B

IN1No impact. Normal operation.D
IN2No impact. Normal operation.D
PG3Very high risk of damage to the PG pin and device, resulting from excess current drawn when the PG open drain becomes low impedance.A
BIAS4Normal operation is only established if there is sufficient dropout (VIN ≥ VOUT + VDO, where VDO = IOUT × (1.6 / 1.5) and VIN (VIN ≥ 2.7V) are provided. Device does not turn on for lower values of VIN, and VOUT remains at 0V.B
EN5Device remains ON regardless of the enable signal value.B
GND6Device does not turn on.B
SS7The LDO output pin voltage is not regulated and tracks VIN. VOUT equals VIN – dropout.B
FB8The LDO output pin voltage is not regulated and equals VIN (under no-load conditions).B
OUT9Device is not functional, the output voltage is not regulated and equals VIN.B
OUT10Same as pin 9.B
