Part Number:BQ24210
Hi,
I am using bq24210 on my custom board to charge the Li-ion battery using the Solar panel.
I am applying variable DC power from bench power supply (Just to simulate Solar panel input) to bq24210 input & measuring o/p voltage on BAT pin. I have configured charger in battery tracking mode & set charge current to 0.8A.
Following are the observations,
- Charger chip output oscillates at freq 18Hz between 3.8 to 4.2V levels during no-load condition. See the attached image.
- The same output voltage oscillation appeared when connected 25mA load at the output, BAT pin.
What could be the cause of this issue?
Appreciate early responses.
Thanks,
Ritesh
