Overview
Das Power MUX Click Board™ verfügt über einen Leistungsmultiplexer, der den Übergang zwischen zwei Stromversorgungen (z. B. einer Batterie und einem Wandadapter) ermöglicht, die jeweils mit 2,8 V bis 5,5 V betrieben werden und je nach Gehäuse bis zu 2 A Strom liefern. Dieser IC bietet Einschaltstromregelung und Wärmeschutz für das Power MUX Click Board™ , manuelle und automatische Betriebsmodiumschaltung, Querleitungsblockierung und Rückleitungsblockierung. Die Auswahl des Betriebsmodus hängt von einem Logikpegel an den D0- und D1-Pins ab. Power MUX Click kann für den Übergang zwischen zwei Stromversorgungen in Anwendungen wie PCs, PDAs, Digitalkameras, Modems, Digitalradios, MP3-Playern und ähnlichen Anwendungen verwendet werden.
Das Power MUX Click Board™ wird von einer mikroSDK-kompatiblen Bibliothek unterstützt, die Funktionen enthält, die die Softwareentwicklung vereinfachen. Dieses Click Board™ wird als vollständig getestetes Produkt geliefert und ist bereit für den Einsatz auf einem System, das mit der mikroBUS™-Buchse ausgestattet ist.
How Does The Power MUX Click Board™ Work?
The Power MUX Click Board™ uses the TPS2115APWR IC, auto-switching power multiplexer that enables transition between two power supplies each operating at 2.8V to 5.5V voltage that comes from Texas Instruments. The Power MUX Click Board™ has two power switch inputs: primary and secondary. The IN1 switch can be enabled only if the IN1 supply is above the UVLO (under-voltage lockout) threshold and at least one supply exceeds the internal VDD UVLO, while the IN2 switch is enabled when the IN2 supply is above UVLO threshold and at least one supply exceeds the internal VDD UVLO.
In auto-switching mode pin D0 is equal to logic 1 and D1 pin is equal to logic 0 which means that this circuit will connect IN1 to OUT until the voltage at IN1 falls below a user-specified value. Once the voltage on IN1 falls below this value, the TPS2115APWR will select the higher of the two supplies. This usually means that the TPS2115APWR will swap to IN2. In manual switching mode pin D0 is equal to logic 0 and the multiplexer selects between two power supplies based upon the D1 logic signal. OUT connects to IN1 if D1 is logic 1; otherwise, OUT connects to IN2. The logic thresholds for the D1 terminal are compatible with both TTL and CMOS logic. There is also interrupt pin STAT that is Hi-Z if the IN2 switch is ON, while STAT goes low if the IN1 switch is ON or if OUT is Hi-Z. The under-voltage lockout circuit causes the output OUT to go Hi-Z if the selected power supply does not exceed the IN1/IN2 UVLO, or if neither of the supplies exceeds the internal VDD UVLO.
The switching circuitry ensures that both power switches will never conduct at the same time. A comparator monitors the gate-to-source voltage of each power FET and allows a FET to turn ON only if the gate-to-source voltage of the other FET is below the turn-on threshold voltage. When the TPS2115APWR switches from a higher voltage supply to a lower voltage supply, current can potentially flow back from the load capacitor into the lower voltage supply. To minimize such reverse conduction, the TPS2115APWR will not connect a supply to the output until the output voltage has fallen to within 100 mV of the supply voltage. Once supply has been connected to the output, it will remain connected regardless of the output voltage. This ensures reliable operation of the IC and the Click board™ itself.
The Power MUX Click Board™ does not use the power from the mikroBUS™ power rails, except 3.3V for the LED indicator, and interrupt's pull-up resistor. More information about the TPS2115APWR can be found in the attached datasheet. However, the Click board™ comes equipped with a library that contains easy to use functions and a usage example that may be used as a reference for the development.

Software Support
We provide a library for the Power MUX Click Board™ on our LibStock page, as well as a demo application (example), developed using MikroElektronika compilers. The demo can run on all the main MikroElektronika development boards.
Library Description
The library covers all the necessary functions to control the Power MUX Click Board™. The Power MUX Click Board™ communicates with the target board through the RST, PWM and INT line. This library offers functions for setting D0 and D1 pins or to use predefined output from input channel 1, output from input channel 2, automatic output channel selection and disable output settings.
Key Functions
void powermux_output_input_ch_1 ( );- Function is used to set output from input channel 1.void powermux_output_input_ch_2 ( );- Function is used to set output from input channel 2.void powermux_auto_sel_input_ch ( );- Function is used to set automatic output channel selection.
Example Description
The application is composed of three sections :
- System Initialization - Initializes GPIO and LOG structures, sets RST and PWM pins as input as output and INT pin as input.
- Application Initialization - Enables GPIO and starts write log.
- Application Task - (code snippet) This example demonstrates the use of POWER MUX Click Board™ board by disabling output tor 2 seconds, then enabling output from channel 1 for 5 seconds then disabling output for 2 seconds again, and repeating for output from channel 2.
