I use the viper06HS to generate +3.3V. i follow the reference design provided by eDesignSuite.

When i turn on my system. the viper06HS provide 1.24V

do you idea?

I attach my schematic

    I have modify my first schematic to generate +4V with VIPER06. 

    I have changed the value R2 by 100K and i have add a resistor of 470K to D4.1 and now it is works.

    thanks for your help

    The VIPER06HS is actually intended for isolated converters, but can also be used for non-isolated converters. Unfortunately you confused pin 1 (GND) with neutral, which leads to several errors:

    • C4.1 should not connect to L3.1, but to D4.2
    • C3.2 should not connect to D4.1, but to D4.2 as well
    • the capacitor between IC1.5 and D4.2 is missing (shown as Cp in eDesignSuite)

    I have made the modification on my design. but i have 1.5V on the output

    Can you please update the schematic?

    Have you got a layout and/or photo for review?

    i update my schematic. for the layout . i put some wires on PCB

    Hmm, just wires on a PCB doesn't sound like optimal wiring for a switching regulator.

    Please make sure the FB wire is as short as possible and not below the inductors.

    Also minimize the length of the wires between pin 1 (GND), D4.1 and L3.1. The connection between D4.2, C6 (-) and the output should also be minimized.

    BTW: I forgot to mention one additional error - the compensation network C5 and C? should not be connected to D4.1, but to D4.2.

    I know the wire is not optimal but for the moment I try to solve my problem.

    the feedback Wire is near viper on my design.

    it is strange that the modifications do not correspond with the reference diagram

    for example, i have the reference design of steval-blueplug on the schematic is very different0693W00000DllRoQAJ.png
