  • Page 12: Configuration Tab

    Three tabs are available across the top: 1. Control, for the main settings of I/Os, the interface and the status/event registers. 2. Configuration, for advanced DA9213, DA9214, or DA9215 configuration. 3. Buck, which includes all the buck settings (output voltages, operating modes)

    UM-PM-029 DA9213, DA9214, and DA9215 Performance Boards Figure 6: DUT Selection Interface Indicators Start Device When pressed it automatically configures the register R327 CONFIG_E for standalone operation. Polling Enabled If disabled, the main read-backs from the device are suppressed. This is used to force the communication over the bus to be silent.

    Set the slave address of the device. This affects all I C communications. See also the register INTERFACE in the DA9213/4/5 Datasheet [1]. Find Finds a control matching a full or partial register name, a control bit name, a register number (for example, R208 or D0h).

  • Page 16 UM-PM-029 DA9213, DA9214, and DA9215 Performance Boards Changing a register control immediately sends the value to the selected register, and reads the value back again, comparing the result with the hex indicator. Note that all bits of the registers are sent at once.

    It also tackles the first steps of making modifications on the device. DA9214 Performance Board (227-04-D) is used for this example; however, the same method applies for both DA9213 and DA9215 Performance Boards. Figure 7: Measurement Set-Up...

    UM-PM-029 DA9213, DA9214, and DA9215 Performance Boards At the top right of the configuration tab the interface indicator should display the same details as shown in Figure Figure 8: Top Right Interface Indicator Select the Start Device button to configure the software for standalone operation correctly. This enables control of the DA9214 in standalone mode.

    UM-PM-029 DA9213, DA9214, and DA9215 Performance Boards Figure 12: Monitoring the Inductor Current of BUCKA When BUCKA is enabled, only phase-1 (LX_A1) is switching, whilst phase-2 (LX_A2) does not. This is happens when PH_SH_EN1 is asserted. Since no load is applied to the output of the buck converter, DA9214 automatically optimizes the number of active phases and turns off phase-2 to save power.

    UM-PM-029 DA9213, DA9214, and DA9215 Performance Boards Figure 13: Inductor Current of Phase-1, Phase-Shedding Enabled To disable the phase shedding set the PH_SH_EN1 bit to zero, thereby forcing both phases to be enabled. The inductor current of phase-1 and phase-2 when BUCKA operates with two active phases is...

  • Page 23: Figure 15: Output Voltage Control

    UM-PM-029 DA9213, DA9214, and DA9215 Performance Boards There is an easy way to modify the output voltage of BUCKA. This is by using the VBUCKA_CTRL_A and VBUCKA_CTRL_B registers, see the red box in Figure In the BUCK_SEL field choose VBUCK_A (see the red arrow in...

    UM-PM-029 DA9213, DA9214, and DA9215 Performance Boards This example configures 1.2 V in VBUCKA_CTRL_A and 0.8 V in VBUCKA_CTRL_B. After asserting the BUCK_SEL bit the DVC transition in the output voltage is as shown in Figure Figure 16: DVC Transition The voltage is decreased by 400 mV in approximately 40 µs, therefore, the slope of the DVC...

    UM-PM-029 DA9213, DA9214, and DA9215 Performance Boards To turn off the whole IC and not only the buck converter use the IC_EN port (see also jumper link J28). By toggling the position of the jumper to the alternative position, the whole IC goes off and the current measured from the supply is close to zero.

    Note 2 The suffix 2 is used to identify coPMIC devices (such as DA9213, DA9214, or DA9215) and distinguish them from the main PMIC devices (such as DA9063). Although they can share the I address if STAND_ALONE is set to zero (see Datasheet for details on STAND_ALONE bit operation), the GUI offers the possibility to assign different I C addresses to main and coPMIC devices.
