We have the following programmable thresholds through I2C:
1) Battery termination voltage threshold will stop energy harvesting when the battery voltage reaches to this threshold.
2) Battery recharge…
We are actually solar cell agnostic. We have customers looking for all types of solar cells. We have added a solar cell on our EVKIT but we also give you a capability to connect in a solar cell of your…
Yes the MAX20361 can operate without configuring registers via the I2C connection, please be aware that each part suffix has a unique set of default values which you can see in Tables 5 and 6 in the datasheet…
No, i f the battery termination voltage is above the voltage when it should not be recharged charging stops. There is also temperature supervision of charging which will stop the charging if the temp exceeds…
The voltage output of MAX20361 is programmable between 4V and 4.7V. Therefore, the voltage rating of the selected super capacitor must comply to this output voltage rating. The other parameters like size…
Yes, the device performs the THM only if the ThmEN bit is set. As long as the ThmEN bit is set to 0b0, the Cold-Startup feature will operate as normal without the THM check at power-on or on the ENb falling…
For very small solar cells, the MAX20361 is the best option as it has a very low input voltage range (225mV to 2.5V) but most importantly it can start up and operate with solar cells that output between…
There is a thermal monitoring feature in MAX20361 using an external thermistor which ensures that charging stops when the system gets too hot or too cold to save the battery. If we use MAX20360 PMIC along…
