2.4.3 Switched Cap Mode Charge Verification

Use the following steps to verify battery charging in switched cap mode.

  1. Make sure the steps in Section 2.4.1 and Section 2.4.2 have been followed.
  2. Check the "CHG_CONFIG_1" box, and then click "Enable Charge". After enabling charge, the output current flowing into Load #1 should be about 2x the input current flowing out of PS1.

  3. Change the charge current:
    By increasing the input voltage, the output current should increase together with the input current. The output current should always be about 2x the input current.
  4. To stop charging, deselect the "Enable Charge" box. The input current and the output current should both fall to zero.
