Configuration Procedure 2.3 Configuration Procedure This procedure details how to configure the evaluation board, using the EVM as a stand-alone unit, in case the factory settings have to be modified. The board was originally configured as shown in section 2.2. External power sources (20 V, 3 A) , battery pack, 100-Ω/5-W resistor and current load are required to evaluate the board.

Configuration Procedure Configuration steps: Step 1: Adjust AC Detection Threshold Set jumpers as follows → J3 ON (charge off) J4 OFF (ac adapter to system) 1) VBAT (J8) open. Connect external supply set to 0 V to J1 (POS/GND), connect 100-Ω resistor between J8 VSYS/GND. 2) Increase supply voltage to desired ac-detection threshold.

Configuration Procedure 7) Set J3 ON (charge disabled). Verify → Charge is off, I(VBAT) < 0 (battery sourcing current) → AC adapter switched to VSYS , V(TP1)=VSYS 8) Set J3 OFF (charge enabled) and J4 ON (battery to system). Verify → Charge is off →...
Chapter 3 Using Additional Functions This chapter describes the use of the break-before-make function (VS pin). Topic Page System Break-Before-Make ........External Pullup for ALARM/ACPRES Outputs .
System Break-Before-Make 3.1 System Break-Before-Make The system break-before-make function (VS pin) can be enabled by: → Setting J9 open (break-before-make enabled). The configuration procedure to set the break-before-make threshold is as follows: 1) Connect power supply to J8 between VBAT and GND. V(POS) (J1) open 2) Adjust VBAT = programmed break-before-make threshold 3) Adjust R28 until V(TP17) = 1.196 V.
Chapter 4 Example: Configuring bq24702/3 for a 3-Cell Li-Ion Pack This chapter describes the configuring the bq24702/3 for a 3-cell Li-Ion Pack. Design parameters: Charge current limit = 2 A DPM current limit = 3 A AC adapter threshold = 16 V Battery depleted threshold = 9 V System break-before-make threshold equal to pack voltage Topic...
Configuration Procedure 4.1 Configuration Procedure Step 1: Adjust AC Detection Threshold Set jumpers as follows → J3 ON (charge off) J4 OFF (ac adapter to system) 1) VBAT (J8) open. 100-Ω resistor between J8 VSYS/GND, V(POS) = 16 V. 2) Adjust R12 to obtain V(TP2)=1.23 V ±1 mV. 3) V(POS) = 14 V, Measure →...
