Texas Instruments has found that on rare occasions some Hercules Safety Microcontrollers have an issue with PLL startup. While Texas Instruments does test for and screen these devices, at the time of publication of this report, our screens are not 100% effective. Parts that are affected have advisory SSWF021#45 listed in the errata document for that device, if the errata document was published in May of 2016 or later. The software workaround described in this report, while not 100% effective, significantly helps to reduce the occurrence of failures.
