Use the following steps for
reverse/OTG/source mode verification using the default VIN_REV:
- For BQ25690EVM REVA only: if not using an external thermistor, short pins
1-2 of JP4 to connect a 10kΩ resistor as the thermistor.
- Set Load #1, the battery simulator, to 7V and 2A current limit.
Note: If Load #1 connected
from J3 BAT to GND is not a four quadrant supply, then remove Load #1 and
replace with PS #1 set to 7V, 2A current limit.
- In the EVM software, confirm that
VIN_REV, the reverse mode regulation voltage, is set to 5000 mV and IIN_REV, the
reverse mode output current limit, is lowered from default 3300mA to
1000mA.
- In the EVM software
- Set EN_BAT_DETECT =
0
- Set EN_REV=1
- Connect disabled Load #2 across
J2 VPWR and PGND
- Set Load #2 to 500mA constant
current load (or 10Ω constant resistance load) and the turn on the load.
- To confirm the reverse regulation,
- Measure→
VBUS = 5.0V ± 155mV
- Turn off and disconnect the power supply.
- Remove Load #2 from the
connection.
