Texas Instruments bq25170EVM Battery Charger Evaluation Module

Texas Instruments bq25170EVM Battery Charger Evaluation Module (EVM) is designed to help the user evaluate and test the various operating modes of the bq25170 device. The bq25170 is a Li-Ion, Li-Poly, and LiFePO4 chemistry battery charger IC for single cells. Charging voltage can be adjusted using external resistors on VSET. The charging current can be set one the Texas Instruments bq25170EVM from 60mA to 600mA with an external resistor on ISET.

Features

  • Complete solution for evaluation of the small form factor linear charger capable of providing up to 800mA to a single li-ion or LiFePO4 battery
  • Popular configuration can be selected using the switches
  • Adjustments for charge current over a wide range along with TS sensing

Required Equipment

  • Battery simulator, such as Keithley 2400, or equivalent or a single-cell battery
  • Power supply, 5V 1A input
    • The unit can operate up to 6.6V input
  • Voltage meter
  • Current meter
