DEMO DAUGHTERBOARD
MEASURE I
AND CURRENT PROBE
The ADP1650 evaluation daughterboard is designed to quickly
evaluate key parameters of the ADP1650 IC. Headers are
available to measure currents using a current probe (preferred)
or ammeter.
Connect a power supply or Li-Ion battery with >3 A capability
to J5. Up to 2.5 A can be drawn from the battery; therefore,
short thick cables (provided) are recommended to minimize the
IR drops. A high current can cause a big IR drop, and V
ADP1650 can be low enough to put the part into UVLO.
I

I
is the battery current and can be measured by using an
BAT
ammeter or current loop across J1.

I
is the LED current and can be measured by using an
LED
ammeter or current loop across J2.
VIN
A VIN sense point is provided at TP21. This should be used to
sense the true voltage at the ADP1650 supply for measuring
LED power efficiency.

The LED subboard (at U2 in Figure 10) can be replaced with a
different subboard containing various LEDs with higher V
test the performance over the full range of LEDs used in a
production environment.
