SolarMagic™ SM3320-
BATT-EV Charge Controller
Reference Design
Introduction
The SM72442 MPPT digital controller and SM72295 photo-
voltaic full bridge drivers are designed to control high efficien-
cy DC/DC conversion used in photovoltaic applications. This
application note will detail the usage of those devices in a
battery charging application. The reference design is meant
to provide support for a wide variety of implementations, how-
ever, unless otherwise noted, this reference design system is
shown charging a 12V commercial automotive lead acid bat-
tery.
Charging Profile
Figure 1
erence design:
If the battery voltage is very low, a slow charge current is ap-
plied and limited until the voltage rises above a pre-set thresh-
old value Vt. The full charge current is then applied. Once full
charge is detected on the voltage of the battery, the system
switches to a floating charge and maintains the battery volt-
age at a fixed threshold. At any time, the system will run in
MPPT mode if the available power is lower than the power
required to achieve voltage or current regulation.
