Reading layout details of LTC4373HDD#TRPBF.
Looking at the board of LTC4373HDD#TRPBF.
Reading symbol pins.
Thought for a moment
Analyzing pin layout issues
I see that there are problems with the EP terminal, which was generated as a perimeter pin, and the thermal pad being unbound. The project is HellzGate, but I can't mutate external components. I wonder if I can fix it by checking the part layout or submitting a quality issue. The pin placement seems incorrect too: the left row should have pins ordered as OUT 1, GATE 2, SOURCE 3, IN 4, while the right row has issues with UV and EP placements as well. This definitely needs attention!
Addressing thermal pad issue
Oh no, the thermal pad is separate and
there are two pads "IN_5" and "GND_4" which look like they should simply be GND
Thought for 11 sec
Those pads indicate the TPS259830ONRGER, not the LTC4373. They must not both be GND:
IN_5/ Thermal Pad 1 → INGND_4/ Thermal Pad 2 → GND
TI specifies two electrically distinct exposed pads; shorting both to GND would directly short the input rail. The footprint naming may be awkward, but that separation is electrically required.

Schematic Completion Pass 2 Capacity Checkpoint
Stop reason
Execution capacity ended before the focused schematic-completion pass could finish. This checkpoint records the exact post-mutation state. Resume from the current live schematic; do not restart, rebuild, delete prior work, touch PCB layout, or create manufacturing files.
Status at stop
- Production status: STOP-SHIP.
- Schematic status: partial; not ready for independent review.
- Fresh exhaustive review timestamp: 2026-07-23T21:12:18.029Z.
- Unresolved schematic findings: 316 errors.
- Floating Pin: 300 errors.
- Missing Power: 16 errors.
- No unresolved ERC item has been waived.
- No PCB/layout/manufacturing mutation was made.
Mutations completed in this pass
- Verified from the TI TPS25947 datasheet that TPS259474 includes integrated back-to-back MOSFETs and blocks reverse current from OUT to IN; U4 and U9 remain suitable for the intended 5 V source-isolation/ORing role, subject to completing their support/control networks.
- Verified the TI TPS552882 9–20 V to 5 V / 5 A reference operating point: 4.7 µH power inductor, 10 mΩ output-current sense, 400 kHz switching, and external buck-side N-channel MOSFETs.
- Added two real Flux-library-supported Texas Instruments CSD17578Q5A MOSFETs:
- Q2: U3 buck high-side FET.
- Q3: U3 buck low-side FET.
- Verified library metadata: 30 V, 25 A class, 6.9 mΩ, 7.9 nC, TDSON-8-1.
- Created and wired
U3_SW1:- Q2 source pins 1/2/3.
- Q3 drain.
- U3 SW1 pin 23.
- L1 pin 1.
- Connected Q2 drain to
VBUS_PROTECTED. - Created and wired
U3_DR1H_GATE: U3 DR1H pin 2 to Q2 gate. - Created and wired
U3_DR1L_GATE: U3 DR1L pin 1 to Q3 gate. - Connected Q3 source pins 1/2/3, U3 PGND pins 9/24, and U3 AGND pin 10 to GND.
- Created and wired
U3_SW2: L1 pin 2 to both U3 SW2 pins 21/25. - Preserved existing L1 as exact Coilcraft XAL1010-472MED, 4.7 µH.
- The pass reduced unresolved findings from 326 to 316 and removed the earlier U3 power-stage/L1/Q2/Q3 floating-pin findings.
Verified current U3 connectivity
VBUS_PROTECTED: U2 OUT, U3 VIN, Q2 drain.U3_SW1: Q2 sources, Q3 drain, U3 SW1, L1 P1.U3_SW2: L1 P2, U3 SW2 pins 21 and 25.U3_DR1H_GATE: U3 DR1H to Q2 gate.U3_DR1L_GATE: U3 DR1L to Q3 gate.- GND: U3 PGND pins 9/24, U3 AGND pin 10, Q3 sources.
- Existing
USB_5V: U3 VOUT pin 11, U4 IN/EN, U6 VBUS. U3 VOUT pin 26 still requires connection during the remaining U3 network completion.
