We are bulding a device based on mp8017 and we have seen that the MP8017 negotiates with the poe device, but there is no switching happening. Vcc pin is stuck at 2v, and i see 51v at vbus pins.
The device heats up to 60 degrees. Ive checked for shorts, replaced the ic, replaced the capacitors, but to no avail.
Seeing that i see no vcc, I suspect the reason for no switching case is that there is something massively wrong with the internal ldo.
Have you confirmed whether this is an IC issue? Have you resoldered a new MP8017 to test?
If the problem is still there, Please fill out the MPS NOW Technical Support form. A member from the MPS NOW team will contact you within 24–36 hours about this request. Contact MPS - Contact
Yeah we have checked everyhing. Weirdly enough we have 1 card that works perfectly well with our modifications (albeit with the output rises to 18v with no load, which is not a problem for us)
This somewhat confirms that the issue is with the soldering or other.
