ISL6298EVAL2 Evaluation Board
Application Manual
Description
The ISL6298EVAL2 provides a complete platform for the
evaluation of the ISL6298-2CR4. The on board 9-bit DIP
switch facilitates programming charging current, setting EN
input, battery thermal status, and so on. The four jumpers
can set up input source selection, USB mode selection, and
can be used to make other necessary connections.
Assembled in the center, the components constitute a
complete charger solution, demonstrating the space saving
advantage of the ISL6298 in limited space applications.
LEDs connected to FAULT and STATUS pins will indicate
the normal charging status or fault condition.
On board jumpers and a DIP switch accommodate different
operation conditions for the charger.
Features:
• 9-bit DIP switch for conveniently setting up charging
current, battery thermal status, EN input, and so on
• Different jumpers for input source selection, USB mode
selection, and the convenience of current measurement
• Exposed soldering pads connected to STATUS, FAULT,
TIME, EN, V2P8, IMIN and TEMP functional pins to
accommodate experimental testing that need extra
connections to those pins
• Board size 3.5 x 2.5 square inches for the convenience of
evaluation
• Eight thermal vias in the thermal pad simulating the
customers’ thermal enhanced environment
