Buck 18 Click is a compact add-on board for step-down voltage conversion in power-sensitive applications. This board features the MAXM38643, an ultra-low-IQ nanoPower buck module from Analog Devices, providing highly efficient voltage regulation with minimal power consumption. The board supports input voltages from 1.8V to 5.5V, converting them to output voltages between 0.7V and 3.3V. Users can manually adjust the output voltage through an onboard TRIM trimmer or digitally via the AD5171 digital potentiometer controlled through an I2C interface.
We provide a library for the Buck 18 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.
This library contains API for Buck 18 Click driver.
buck18_cfg_setup
Config Object Initialization function. buck18_init
Initialization function. buck18_default_cfg
Click Default Configuration function. buck18_set_vout
This function sets the voltage output level. buck18_read_voltage
This function reads raw ADC value and converts it to proportional voltage level. buck18_enable
This function turns on the power switch and enables the buck mode. This example demonstrates the use of the Buck 18 Click board by changing the output voltage.
The demo application is composed of two sections :
Initialization of I2C module and log UART. After driver initialization, the app executes a default configuration.
The demo application changes the output voltage and displays the current voltage output value. Results are being sent to the UART Terminal, where you can track their changes.
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.

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.
