3 out of 5 NX Devkit carrier boards have failed now. In each case, they’re essentially presenting a dead short to the 19v power supply. Anyone else? Nothing special about the setups. No USB peripherals, nothing connected to the 40 pin header, using the supplied 19v power supply. Each time thou…

The output current of TPS53015 could be much higher than 120mA which can be 10A or more. Not sure why your boards failed, if it is boar defect you can run RMA for them to find out root cause.

hello gtj,

are you running a use-case with heavy GPU loads also?
please check Topic 173571 for reference, this is a reproducible issue with 5A OC limit on Xavier-NX.
thanks
