Figure 4-16 shows the typical bench setup to operate the EVM.
The combination of the E-Load, Power supply and Capacitor emulates a battery at VLOW side. The emulated battery provides energy at Boost Mode or Battery Discharge Mode and absorbs energy at Buck Mode or Battery Charge Mode.
The combination of the E-Load and Power supply emulates a stable voltage bus at VHIGH side. The voltage bus provides energy at Buck Mode or Battery Charge Mode and absorbs energy at Boost Mode or Battery Discharge Mode.
The Vbat_sense+ and Vbat_sense- are connected for battery remote voltage sense.
Power Supplies: PS-High needs to be capable of 20 V/10 A , and PS-Low needs 5 V/ 25 A.
Electronic Loads: The E-Load-High needs to be capable of 20 V/10 A and E-Load-Low needs 5 V/ 25 A.
Capacitor: The capacitor needs to be above 5 V rated voltage and gets a capacitance of several hundred microfacies to make sure the port voltage stable during charge/discharge process.
Meters: Most current meters are rated only to 10 A, current probe or shunt are recommended to measure the current.
Oscilloscope: An oscilloscope and 10x probes with at least 20-MHz bandwidth is required. Current probe capable of 30 A is required to monitor the inductor current via a wire loop inserted to the non-switching side of the inductor.
