Page 4: Introduction
The DA9063 Evaluation Boards have been produced to allow measurement, evaluation and programming of the DA9063 device. Note that the DA9063L is a variant of the DA9063 with slightly reduced functionality. This guide is also applicable for the DA9063L. The motherboard in... -
Page 5: Software Installation
UM-PM-009 DA9063/63L Evaluation Board Software Installation When the supplied media is inserted into the computer the installation should begin automatically. If the installation does not start automatically, run the program ‘setup.exe’. This will be found in the directory ‘Software’ on the media. An automated script will install the program on your PC. By default, the directory C:\Dialog Semiconductor\Power Management\DA9063_vxx will be used. - Page 6 UM-PM-009 DA9063/63L Evaluation Board When you plug in the USB cable Windows will detect the USB device. It will prompt for the drivers, which should be automatically located in the ‘Driver_PID-1011’ directory of the media. If this does not happen automatically you should open the Device Manager and get a list similar to the following: After double clicking on the unknown Dialog device, you should update the driver as shown below: By selecting the appropriate directory the driver should be found.
- Page 7 UM-PM-009 DA9063/63L Evaluation Board If installed correctly, the Dialog USB Driver should be listed on Device Manager as shown above. To uninstall the software please use the Windows ‘Add/Remove Programs’ function that can be found under ‘Start’->’Settings’->’Control Panel’. Application Note Revision 2.2...

Page 8: Hardware
UM-PM-009 DA9063/63L Evaluation Board Hardware The DA9063 Motherboard comprises the DA9063 device, a USB-I C bridge for communication with the device, and a few external active components to reduce the requirement for external equipment. Notes and limitations: ● When a socketed daughter board is plugged into the motherboard it is primarily intended to allow low power evaluation of the device (due to the high contact resistance of up to 50 mΩ). -
Page 9: Configuration Panel
DA9063/63L Evaluation Board Configuration Panel Run the DA9063 program by clicking the shortcut in the Start menu. The optimum setting for the PC display is 1024x768 pixels or above. Font size on the PC display should be Normal (95dpi). It is important to note that a display size other than the recommended setting may affect the way in which the panels appear. - Page 10 IRQ status and RTC at 1sec intervals, and load the RTC and Alarm register with current local time and date. Deselecting ‘Autostart’ allows more options for evaluating wakeup conditions, but is more complicated to use. The command button ‘Stop Program’ ends the DA9063 program.

Page 11: Quick Start Tutorial Guide
UM-PM-009 DA9063/63L Evaluation Board Quick Start Tutorial Guide This section will go step by step through starting up the evaluation board and software to get the device up and running. It will also tackle the first steps of using a project template and making modifications. - Page 12 POWER-DOWN state, which is mapped into the OFF mode. At this point DA9063 is waiting for a wake up event, for example an nONKEY press. After the key press there is a second software download equivalent to the second OTP read, which is performed by pressing the Download button again.
- Page 13 UM-PM-009 DA9063/63L Evaluation Board An initial check is to monitor the output of the CORE supply. This should be enabled, and read approximately 1.38 V on a multimeter. Go to the ‘Bucks A’ tab and locate register BCORE1_CONT. The control BCORE1_EN should be green and showing enabled.
- Page 14 UM-PM-009 DA9063/63L Evaluation Board The new configuration will be loaded along with the first and the second software downloads, (equivalent to the OTP reads) in the power up sequence. If you have the ‘Autostart’ selected, a simple press on the ‘Start Device’ button will bring you automatically back to ACTIVE.
- Page 15 Powerdown mode. The second only sets the LDO and Buck voltages back to their default state. They may have been altered temporarily in the active state. DA9063 is a very powerful and flexible device, but that brings with it complexity and some logic puzzles. This software will evolve to assist.

Page 16: Modifying The Configuration File
UM-PM-009 DA9063/63L Evaluation Board Modifying the Configuration File The software is provided with a number of official variant files (DA9063_xxxx.ini), which should be suitable for most designs. Commercially viable customer variants will be considered. This procedure will describe making a change to one of these files by changing 2 parameters. - Page 17 UM-PM-009 DA9063/63L Evaluation Board Clicking the ‘LDO3’ button on the configuration panel opens a dialog box shown below. The alias name VGEN3_2V5 can be entered into the text box. When ‘Save’ in the dialog box is pressed the alias name change is written to the temporary working area.
- Page 18 UM-PM-009 DA9063/63L Evaluation Board Verify on the ‘Power Sequencer’ tab that LDO3_STEP (in Register ID_4_3) has changed to ‘Slot 8’ Select the tab ‘LDO’s 1-4’ Select menu item Settings=>Configuration Mode=>Config Mode starting point=>Current values. This is selected to prevent disturbing any changes made since the project load, and the Slot number of LDO3 has already been changed.
- Page 19 UM-PM-009 DA9063/63L Evaluation Board The slot number is 8, as shown in the Power Sequence window. AUTO_BOOT has been set to Disabled. As a final check, a Text Difference, produced by a text processing tool would highlight only the lines that begin with ‘LDO3_Alias’, ‘R16 =‘, ‘R132 =‘, ‘R171 =‘, and ‘GUID = ‘.

Page 41: Evaluation Board Features
The USB device is powered via the USB bus cable via a fixed 3.3 V regulator. The jumpers J1 and J2 are used to select between I C and SPI communication to DA9063. This has to be configured together with the IC_TYPE field of register CONFIG_A. -
Page 42: Motherboard Control And Io Signals
DA9063/63L Evaluation Board Motherboard Control and IO signals All of the Control and IO signals from the DA9063 appear on the headers pins shown above. These are the most useful monitor points for debug purposes. If required, a suitable connector can bring these signals to the system board for integrated development. - Page 43 UM-PM-009 DA9063/63L Evaluation Board The arrangement of the jumper links to the GPIO pins allows for a very flexible use of these resources. The jumpers may be inserted in J10 for USB control and monitor. They can be placed in J9 in the left hand location, connecting to VDD_IO via 100 kΩ...

Page 44: Voltage Outputs (Motherboard)
UM-PM-009 DA9063/63L Evaluation Board Voltage Outputs (Motherboard) The LDOs and Buck regulator outputs are accessible on the pairs of terminal pins shown above. They are arranged in pairs to allow meaningful measurements under load conditions. Each pin is connected separately to the regulator output, to a point as close as possible to the device pin. -
Page 45: Vddio Selection
Jumper J17 allows selection between the 3.3 V and 1.8 V (default) regulators. Consideration should be given that a VDDIO voltage may cause back powering of DA9063 from the VDDIO rail. In particular, if 3.3 V is used without the main VSYS supply, this may keep the digital core of DA9063 powered, thereby preventing a reset of the logic: this may lead to undesired operating modes. -
Page 46: Pc Mode And Otp Programming
UM-PM-009 DA9063/63L Evaluation Board PC Mode and OTP Programming The ‘TP select’ switch selects between normal and PC mode/OTP programming. If configured in the right hand position, the TP pin is grounded via a 10 kΩ pull down resistor, thereby selecting normal mode operation, with the register settings loaded from the programmed OTP. -
Page 47: Voltage Outputs (Daughter Board)
UM-PM-009 DA9063/63L Evaluation Board Voltage Outputs (Daughter Board) The left hand side of J19 allows the output voltage of the LDOs to be directly sensed on the daughter board. The right hand side of J19 is intended for higher current and direct connection of output load for each LDO. - Page 48 UM-PM-009 DA9063/63L Evaluation Board J20 and J21 of the daughter board allow for monitoring the output voltage and currents for each Buck regulator. The outer pins are intended for voltage sensing and the inner pins are designed for current handling.
