Library Description

The library contains all the necessary functions to have complete control over BUCK 6 click board. Control over PWM is not included in the library.

Key functions:

• void buck6_setMode(uint8_t mode) - Sets up working mode
• void buck6_setMaxVoltage(uint8_t voltage) - Sets maximum voltage on outputs

Examples Description

The demo application is composed of three sections:

• System Initialization - Initializes CS pin, RST pin, PWM pin, AN pin as OUTPUT and INT pin as INPUT.
• Application Initialization - The driver initialization and chip settings for the ACTIVE mode. Sets the maximum range to 5V.
• Application Task - (code snippet) - Sets the different maximum voltages.

void applicationTask()
{
 buck6_setMaxVoltage(_BUCK6_MAX_RANGE_2500mV);
 Delay_ms( 3000 );
 buck6_setMaxVoltage(_BUCK6_MAX_RANGE_5000mV);
 Delay_ms( 3000 );
 buck6_setMaxVoltage(_BUCK6_MAX_RANGE_7500mV);
 Delay_ms( 3000 );
 buck6_setMaxVoltage(_BUCK6_MAX_RANGE_10000mV);
 Delay_ms( 3000 );
 buck6_setMaxVoltage(_BUCK6_MAX_RANGE_7500mV);
 Delay_ms( 3000 );
 buck6_setMaxVoltage(_BUCK6_MAX_RANGE_5000mV);
 Delay_ms( 3000 );
}

Other MikroElektronika libraries used in the example:

• I2C

Additional notes and information

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.
