Hi Guys,
I am working on the robotics project, that is why I think the PM board gonna be useful for me to monitor the power. Thus, I print the power management board with some small changes. I powered the power management board, however, when I power the board, I found out that the source and gate has been short circuited before I enable the LTC7001.

The figure is the schematics, I did not change much only change the MOSFET to BSC028N06 which has the very similar characteristic.
Can someone help me with this issue?

The voltage supply to similar to the Open Dynamics' design which is 12V

Hi Guys, the problem has been fixed but the voltage is clamped at 5V if I am not enable the LTC700 at the output.

Hi, I also observed this on our boards,
This happen when no load is plugged on the output. I suspect some capacitive coupling that gets rectified.
In practice this will drop to zero as soon as a load is present.
