3.1 Software Setup

BQSTUDIO

If using BQSTUDIO and either the EV2400 or EV2500 communication box, use the following steps to set up the EVM testing software:

  1. Connect the EV2400 or EV2500 to the PC with BQSTUDIO installed on it using the USB cable.
  2. Connect the EV2400 or EV2500 to the EVM using the 4-pin Molex cable.
  3. Launch BQSTUDIO and select "Charger" from the first splash screen.
  4. On the second splash screen, select Charger_1_00-BQ25692-Q1 from the list of available BQZ files.
  5. On the last screen, while you can use either the Default View tab or the Field View tab, the Field View gives a more concise view.

TI-CHARGER-GUI

If using TI-CHARGER-GUI and USB2ANY communication box, use the following steps to set up the EVM testing software:

  1. Connect the USB2ANY box to the EVM using the 10-pin ribbon cable. If using the EV2400, a USB-A to USB-B cable is included for connecting the USB2ANY box to the PC. If using the EV2500, the USB-A to USB-C cable is not included but is required to connect the USB2ANY box to the PC.
  2. Launch TI-CHARGER-GUI from the website.
  3. Either type in search box or scroll down to find BQ25692-Q1.
