GETTING STARTED
The MCP1640 Single Quadruple-A Battery Boost Converter Reference Design is fully
assembled and tested to evaluate and demonstrate the MCP1640 products.
2.2.1
2.2.1.1
The MCP1640 Single Quadruple-A Battery Boost Converter Reference Design is
equipped with an innovative Energizer Battery Holder, which protects against the
reverse insertion of the AAAA alkaline battery. If the battery is inserted correctly, the
board will start in Standby mode. To switch the output ON, press the button S1 for 2
seconds. The output is active for approximately 25 seconds. Pressing the button during
this period will turn OFF the output.
Extra connectors are placed on the top side of board:
• TP1 and TP5 for positive (V
• TP2 and TP3 for negative (GND
These two connectors help engineers power the board from an external power supply.
In this case, the maximum input voltage should not exceed the 3.3V output
(V
greater than or equal to the output voltage.
The output connector is called “OUT”, and is referenced to GND. The maximum output
current is 130 mA when the board is powered by a quadruple-A alkaline battery, which
has a typical capacity of 600 mAh.
2.2.1.2
To test the board, follow the next steps:
1. Insert the quadruple-A battery in its holder, paying attention to respect the
2. Connect a voltmeter and a 47Ω/0.5W resistor, between “OUT” and “–”
3. Press and hold the push-button for approximately 2 seconds. The LED should be
