PCB Layout Guideline
Operation Mode is Charger Mode. Uncheck Charge Current Termination. Check STAT Pin. Select
Battery Regulation Voltage to 4.20V.

Boost Function
1. Adjust PS#1 output to 3.7V and disable the output. Connect the PS#1 in series with a current meter
(multimeter) to J2 (BAT+, BAT
–
). Make sure a voltage meter is connected across J2 (BAT+, BAT
–
).
2. Set the Load #1 current to 200mA
±
20mA but disable the output. Connect the output of the Load #1 in
series with a current meter (multimeter) to J1 (DC+, DC
–
). Make sure a voltage meter is connected
across J1 (DC+, DC
–
). The setup is now like
for HPA256.

PCB Layout Guideline
1. To obtain optimal performance, the power input capacitors, connected from input to PGND, should be
placed as close as possible to the IC.
2. The output inductor should be placed close to the IC and the output capacitor connected between the
inductor and PGND of the IC. The intent is to minimize the current path loop area from the SW pin
through the LC filter and back to the PGND pin. To prevent high frequency oscillation problems, proper
layout to minimize high frequency current path loop is critical.
3. The sense resistor should be adjacent to the junction of the inductor and output capacitor. Route the
sense leads connected across the RSNS back to the IC, close to each other (minimize loop area) or
