Rework the eFuse schematic for readability; 3-resistor OVLO divider
Redraws the eFuse area with proper wires instead of labels-on-pins, and
simplifies the divider that 228ff03 added.
The first draft split R3 into 12 k + 2.2 k to hit 14.2 k, purely to preserve
the original ~8.9 V UVLO. That bought a fourth resistor and a named junction
net (EFUSE_R3MID) that nothing else touched. The ~9 V UVLO turned out to be
an assumption carried over from the original design rather than a requirement:
U3's minimum input is 4.5 V, so relaxing it to 6.78 V costs nothing and is in
fact less likely to chatter if the GC rail sags.
R46 620 k -> 100 k (C25741) R1: 12V_RAW -> EN/UVLO
R47 100 k -> 12.4 k (C11692) R2: EN/UVLO -> OVLO
R48 NEW 10 k (C25744) R3: OVLO -> GND
R49 removed
R45 100 k -> 33 k (C25779) ILIM 0.52 A -> 1.52 A
OVLO is unchanged at 15.18 V typ (14.47-15.78 worst case) against U3's 17 V
limit, so the simplification costs nothing on the parameter that matters.
Verified: 12V_RAW(R46.2) / EFUSE_EN(R46.1,R47.1,U13.5) / EFUSE_OVLO(R47.2,
R48.1,U13.2) / GND(R48.2,R45.2,U13.4); 152 -> 151 components with only R49
removed; ERC 0 violations.

**SCHEMATIC DONE 2026-10-02 (netlist + ERC verified) — PCB PLACEMENT
|
||||
AND ROUTING STILL TO DO.** TI 3-resistor ladder (§8.2.3.2), EN/UVLO tapped at
|
||||
R1–R2 and OVLO at R2–R3, plus an ILIM correction:
|
||||
R46 620 k -> **150 k** (C93947) R1, top: 12V_RAW -> EN/UVLO
|
||||
R47 100 k -> **10 k** (C25744) R2: EN/UVLO -> OVLO
|
||||
R48 NEW -> **12 k** (C25752) \ R3 = 14.2 k in series,
|
||||
R49 NEW -> **2.2 k** (C25879) / OVLO -> GND
|
||||
R46 620 k -> **100 k** (C25741) R1, top: 12V_RAW -> EN/UVLO
|
||||
R47 100 k -> **12.4 k** (C11692) R2: EN/UVLO -> OVLO
|
||||
R48 NEW -> **10 k** (C25744) R3: OVLO -> GND
|
||||
R45 100 k -> **33 k** (C25779) ILIM 0.52 A -> 1.52 A
|
||||
U13 pin 2 (OVLO): disconnected from GND, now on net EFUSE_OVLO.
|
||||
Verified after the edit: nets are 12V_RAW(R46.1) / EFUSE_EN(R46.2, R47.1,
|
||||
U13.5) / EFUSE_OVLO(R47.2, R48.1, U13.2) / EFUSE_R3MID(R48.2, R49.1) /
|
||||
GND(R49.2, R45.2, U13.4); component count 150 -> 152 with nothing
|
||||
dropped; ERC 0 violations. **PCB TODO:** place R48/R49 near U13, route
|
||||
the new EFUSE_OVLO and EFUSE_R3MID nets, and re-export BOM + CPL
|
||||
(reapplying CPL_ROTATIONS.md afterwards).
|
||||
Gives UVLO 8.93 V typ (unchanged from today) and OVLO 15.21 V typ,
|
||||
15.81 V worst case — under U3's 17 V input rating, which is what actually
|
||||
caps the OVLO target. ILIM must exceed the board's own 621 mA inrush;
|
||||
**Three resistors, not four** - an earlier draft split R3 into 12 k + 2.2 k
|
||||
to hit 14.2 k, which created a pointless named junction net. Relaxing the
|
||||
UVLO target (it was an assumption, not a requirement) allows a single
|
||||
stocked 10 k for R3 at essentially the same OVLO. Do not re-split it.
|
||||
Verified after the edit: nets are 12V_RAW(R46.2) / EFUSE_EN(R46.1, R47.1,
|
||||
U13.5) / EFUSE_OVLO(R47.2, R48.1, U13.2) / GND(R48.2, R45.2, U13.4);
|

**PCB TODO:** place R48 near U13, route the new EFUSE_OVLO net, and

|
||||
Gives **UVLO 6.78 V** and **OVLO 15.18 V typ (14.47–15.78 worst case)**
|
||||
— under U3's 17 V input rating, which is what actually caps the OVLO
|
||||
target. UVLO sits well above U3's 4.5 V minimum, so the lower value is
|
||||
harmless and is in fact less prone to chattering if the GC rail sags. ILIM must exceed the board's own 621 mA inrush;
|
||||
0.52 A did not, so the part current-limited on every power-on.
|
||||
**Every value is already on the BOM and 620 k loses its only user, so this
|
||||
is one FEWER unique part, +2 placements.** Full derivation, tolerance
