Charge Mode Test Setup
Use the following list to set up the equipment for charge mode operation:
1.
shows the test setup for BQ25886 when in charge (boosting) mode including jumper settings
per
. Ensure that the power supply and battery simulator are turned off before connecting to the
EVM.

2. Voltmeters 1 through 3 (VM1, VM2, and VM3) connect to Kelvin test points for measuring VBUS, SYS,
and BAT as close to the IC pins as possible. Voltmeters 4 through 6 measure the voltage across 0.01
Ω
, which gives the current.
3. Before attaching to the EVM, set battery simulator 1 (BS#1) no higher than 7.6 V and at a 2.5-A
current limit and set power supply 1 (PS#1) for 5.5 V and a 3.5-A current limit.
4. Turn off BS#1 and PS#1 then attach BS#1 to the BAT (J4) and PGND(J5) terminal of the EVM and
attach PS#1 to J1 (VBUS, GND) of the EVM.
5. For and BQ25886, optionally, turn off an electronic load and attach to the J2 (SYS, GND) terminal of
the EVM.
6. For BQ25886EVM, place shunt on JP15. Adjust R31 potentiometer such that the resistance measured
between TP18 and TP26 is 4.15k
Ω
. Adjust R5 potentiometer such that the resistance measured
between TP21 AND tp26 is 500
Ω
. Short D+ and D- pin to put the device in DCP upon adapter plug in
(Place shunt on JP3 pin 2 to JP6 pin 1).
