Advance Information
2.2.2
Charge Mode I2C Register Setup
2.2.2.1
BQ25883EVM
1. Turn on BS#1 and set for 7.6 V.
2. In the EVM software, specify the “I2C Address” as
D6 (6B)
.
3. Click the
Read
button.
4. In the EVM GUI software
Field View
, ensure that the following I
2
C registers have the following settings:
•
Chose “Disabled” in the drop-down box for the
Watchdog Timer
•
Input Voltage Limit
= "4.4V" (default)
•
Input Current Limit
= "3.3A"
•
Charge Voltage Limit
= "8.40V" (default)
•
Fast Charge Current Limit
= "1.00A"
•
Pre-charge Current Limit
to "0.15A" (default)
•
Minimum System Voltage
to "7.0V" (default)
•
Deselect
Enable Charge
to disable charge
•
Deselect
Enable ILIM pin
to disable the ILIM pin
•
Deselect
Enable HiZ
, if selected
5. Click
Read Register
to confirm that register changes were made.
2.2.3
Charge Mode Test Procedure
Use the following steps for charge mode verification and testing:
1. Turn on PS#1 and click the
Read Register
button twice.
•
Observe
→
everything "Normal" at the
Fault
box
•
Observe
→
D4 (STAT) is off because charge is disabled.
•
Observe
→
D5 (PG) is on indicating power is good.
•
Measure on VM2
→
V(TP14 (SYS), TP26 (AGND)) = 6.4 V ±50 mV
2. On BQ25883EVM, use the GUI to select
Enable Charge
to start charging at 1.0 A. To correct for cable
resistance, adjust PS#1 until VM1 [TP7 (VBUS_S), TP26 (AGND)] measures 5.5 V ±50 mV and adjust
BS#1 until VM3 [TP15 (BAT), TP26 (AGND)] measures 7.6 V ±50 mV.
•
Measure on VM6
→
V(TP5 (RBAT+), TP6 (RBAT-)) = 10 mV ±0.7 mV which corresponds to ICHG
= 1.0 A ±5% through a 0.010-
Ω
±1% resistor. Voltage of 0.1 mV is added to account for DMM
accuracy.
•
Measure on VM4
→
V(TP1 (RAC+), TP2 (RAC-)) = 14.8 mV ±0.7 mV which corresponds to IVBUS
= 1.48 A ±5% (accounting for efficiency variation across ICs and inductors) through a 0.010-
Ω
±1%
resistor. Voltage of 0.1 mV is added to account for DMM accuracy.
3. Optionally, in the GUI, select
Enable ILIM pin
. Adjust the RLIM potentiometer (R5) until:
•
Measure on VM4
→
V(TP1 (RAC+), TP2 (RAC-)) = 10 mV ±0.7 mV which corresponds to IVBUS =
1.0 A ±5% through a 0.010-
Ω
±1% resistor. Voltage of 0.1 mV is added to account for DMM
accuracy.
•
Obverse in bqStudio after Read Register
→
IINDPM Status: In IINDPM
4. Turn off and disconnect PS#1, BS#1, Load#1, and voltmeters.
