Calibration

  1. To run this lab, make sure the hardware is set up as shown in Figure 3-11. The 2-points calibration method is used to calibrate gain and offset errors.
  2. To measure current, use an external precision resistor and a DMM, or you can use E-Load current readings. Alternatively, voltage across sense resistors on the TIDA-010090 boards can be used to measure the output current. To measure voltage, use a DMM across the buck converter output voltage and remote sense connections.
  3. Open the SYSCONFIG page, select Lab 5, and set Calibration Mode to Current Calibration. Figure 3-32 shows the SYSCONFIG page setting for current calibration.
    • Save the SYSCONFIG page, and run the code.
    • Open the Expression Window.
    • The output current is updated using BT4PH_userParam_V_I_chX->ibatCal_pu parameter.
    • Set the BT4CH_userParam_chX->Relay_ON to 1 to enable the output relay.
    • Set the BT4CH_userParam_chX->en_bool = 1.
    • Set the BT4CH_userParam_chX->ibatCal_pu to "0.05" and "0.3", and note the output current readings.
    • Update the actual output current readings in bt4ch_gan_cal.h file.
    #define BT4CH_IBAT_ACTUAL_CH1_P1_A ((float32_t)2.5)
    #define BT4CH_IBAT_ACTUAL_CH1_P2_A ((float32_t)15.00)
    • Repeat the steps for channel 2, 3 and 4.
  4. Open the SYSCONFIG page, select Lab 5, and set Calibration Mode to Voltage Calibration. Figure 3-33 shows the SYSCONFIG page setting for voltage calibration.

    • Save the SYSCONFIG page, and run the code.
    • Open the Expression Window.
    • The output current is updated using BT4PH_userParam_V_I_chX->vbatCal_pu parameter.
    • Set the BT4CH_userParam_chX->Relay_ON to 1 to enable the output relay.
    • Set the BT4CH_userParam_chX->en_bool = 1.
    • Set the BT4CH_userParam_chX->vbatCal_pu to "0.2" and "0.6", and note the output current readings. Update the actual output current readings in bt4ch_cal.h file.
      #define BT4CH_VBAT_ACTUAL_CH1_P1_V ((float32_t)1.195)
      #define BT4CH_VBAT_ACTUAL_CH1_P2_V ((float32_t)3.589)
    • Repeat the steps for channel 2, 3 and 4.
  5. Open the SYSCONFIG page, disable the calibration mode.
  6. When using non-powerSuite version of the project, Build Settings are directly modified in solution_settings.h file. Set CALIBRATION_MODE to (1) for current calibration, and (2) for voltage calibration.
