Software Support

We provide a library for the Charger 19 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 from NECTO Studio Package Manager(recommended way), downloaded from our LibStock™ or found on Mikroe github account.

Library Description

This library contains API for Charger 19 Click driver.

Example Description

This example demonstrates the use of Charger 19 Click board by enabling the device

and then reading and displaying the battery voltage.

The demo application is composed of two sections :

Application Init

Initializes the driver and enables the device, sets the output

voltage to 3 V.

void application_init ( void )
{
log_cfg_t log_cfg;
charger19_cfg_t charger19_cfg;
LOG_MAP_USB_UART( log_cfg );
log_init( &logger, &log_cfg );
log_info( &logger, " Application Init " );
// Click initialization.
charger19_cfg_setup( &charger19_cfg );
CHARGER19_MAP_MIKROBUS( charger19_cfg, MIKROBUS_1 );
if ( ADC_ERROR == charger19_init( &charger19, &charger19_cfg ) )
{
log_error( &logger, " Communication init." );
for ( ; ; );
}
if ( CHARGER19_ERROR == charger19_default_cfg ( &charger19 ) )
{
log_error( &logger, " Default configuration." );
for ( ; ; );
}
log_info( &logger, " Application Task " );
}

Application Task

Tracking charging status, reading battery voltage.

void application_task ( void )
{
float voltage = 0;
if ( CHARGER19_OK == charger19_get_vbat ( &charger19, &voltage ) )
{
log_printf( &logger, " Battery Voltage : %.3f[V]\r\n\n", voltage );
Delay_ms ( 1000 );
}
}

The full application code, and ready to use projects can be installed directly from NECTO Studio Package Manager(recommended way), downloaded from our LibStock™ or found on Mikroe github account.

Other Mikroe Libraries used in the example:

  • MikroSDK.Board
  • MikroSDK.Log
  • Click.Charger19

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. UART terminal is available in all MikroElektronika compilers.
