I did some measurements on a GTA02v4 with an overload condition on LDO4 (BT_3V2): State LDO4 (nominal) Rload Ibat (Vbat = 4.2 V) BT_3V2 --------------- --------------- ----- ------------------- ------ Idle LDO4 = 0 V open 104 mA 3.29 V Overload LDO4 = 3.3 V 10 R 422 mA 3.05 V Short LDO4 = 3.3 V 0 R 510 mA 0.01 V So the LDO does eventually limit the current, but around 500 mA, which is considerably above the nominal limit of 150 mA. Note that the system didn't reset or crash during this experiment. The PMU got fairly warm after a while, so I stopped. - Werner _______________________________________________ gta02-core mailing list [email protected] https://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/gta02-core
