PRODUCTION DATA
In VAP mode operation, the buck-boost charger delivers the energy from the battery to charge the voltage of the input decoupling capacitors (VBUS) as high as possible (like 20V). The system peak power pulse for a 2S1P or 1S2P system can be as high as 100W if the SoC and motherboard systems spikes coincide. These spikes are expected to be very rare, but possible. During these high power spikes, the charger is expected to supplement the battery (drawing the power from the charger’s input decoupling capacitors) to prevent the system voltage from drooping. VAP allows the SoC to set much higher peak power levels to the SoC, thus provides for much better Turbo performance.
Follows the steps below to enter VAP operation.:
To exit VAP mode, the host should write either REG0x34[5] = 1 or pull low the OTG/VAP pin to low.
Any regular fault conditions of the charger in VAP mode will reset REG0x34[5] = 1, and the charger will exit VAP mode automatically.
