Boost 2 click

BOOST 2 click is a DC-DC step-up (boost) regulator that has a fixed 5V output, which can be obtained from any low voltage input - such as NiCd, NiMH or one cell Li-Po/Li-Ion batteries.

Click library

Software Support

We provide a library for the Boost2 Click as well as a demo application (example), developed using MikroElektronika compilers. The demo can run on all the main MikroElektronika development boards.

Package can be downloaded/installed directly form compilers IDE(recommended way), or downloaded from our LibStock, or found on mikroE github account.

Library Description

This library contains API for Boost2 Click driver.

Standard key functions :

Example key functions :

Examples Description

This application features very high efficiency, low noise and anti-ringing voltage output.

The demo application is composed of two sections :

Application Init

Initializes click driver.

void application_init ( void )
{
log_cfg_t log_cfg;
// Logger initialization.
log_cfg.level = LOG_LEVEL_DEBUG;
LOG_MAP_USB_UART( log_cfg );
log_init( &logger, &log_cfg );
log_info(&logger, "---- Application Init ----");
// Click initialization.
BOOST2_MAP_MIKROBUS( cfg, MIKROBUS_1 );
boost2_init( &boost2, &cfg );
}

Application Task

Demonstrates the use of the click drivers function. It

shows how to enable or disable click operation, and how to check if supplied voltage is good.

void application_task ( void )
{
log_printf( &logger, "Enabling click operation... \r\n" );
boost2_set_en_pin( &boost2, 1 );
Delay_ms(3000);
log_printf( &logger, "Checking output voltage... \r\n" );
Delay_ms(500);
if ( boost2_get_pg_pin( &boost2 ))
{
log_printf( &logger, "Output voltage good. \r\n" );
}
else
{
log_printf( &logger, "Output voltage incorrect. \r\n" );
}
Delay_ms(3000);
log_printf( &logger, "Disabling click operation... \r\n" );
boost2_set_en_pin( &boost2, 0 );
Delay_ms(5000);
}

The full application code, and ready to use projects can be installed directly form compilers IDE(recommneded) or found on LibStock page or mikroE GitHub accaunt.

Additional notes and informations

Depending on the development board you are using, you may need USB UART click, USB UART 2 Click or RS232 Click to connect to your PC, for development systems with no UART to USB interface available on the board. The terminal available in all Mikroelektronika compilers, or any other terminal application of your choice, can be used to read the message.
