To test the active pre-charge reference design, follow the next steps and recommendations.
- Connect a single 5-V input supply to EN and +5V_Pri. This process provides a single trigger signal to power all the devices.
- While the high-voltage supply is disconnected, power the TPSI3052-Q1 and check that all voltages are as expected.
- Turn OFF 5-V supply, this supply will remain OFF until step 8.
- Connect the output-load capacitance positive to J2 (V_Cap) and negative to J4 (-HV).
- Connect input high-voltage supply to positive J1 (+HV) and negative to J3 (-HV).
- Connect the isolated high voltage rated probes to J2-J4 to measure the output voltage and J1-J3 to measure the input voltage. Connect these probes as far as possible from the switching inductor to avoid any noise coupling.
- Connect current probes to measure input current and output current.
- Enable the high voltage power supply.
- Provide the EN/+5V_Pri and observe the active precharge operation.
Turn OFF the 5-V supply connected to EN/+5V_Pri after precharge has been completed.
- Safely discharge the output high voltage capacitors.
Disable high voltage power supply.
