Quick-Start Procedures

  • Connect one pair of Banana-to-clip power cables to the test points at VIN and GND (left side of EVAL Kit).
  • Before connecting the EVAL Kit to the VIN bench supply, turn on the supply and adjust the voltage as close to 0V as possible. Then turn off the supply. While off, connect the banana ends of the Banana-to-clip power cables to the VIN bench supply.
  • Turn on the VIN bench supply and very slowly ramp its voltage to an appropriate voltage of 3.6V. While ramping VIN slowly, use the bench supply’s output current indication (or a digital multimeter) to monitor the VIN current. If the current becomes high, reduce the VIN voltage quickly to prevent damage. Then inspect the setup for any wiring errors.
  • Use a digital multimeter to check the Standby supply current at VIN. For conditions of VIN = 3.6V in Standby mode, it should be below 2A.
  • Connect the Stemma QT 4-wire cable (GND, SDA, SCL) to the KTD2690 evaluation board connector CN3, as shown in the Typical Test Setup Figure below.
  • Connect the other end of the Stemma QT 4-wire cable to the MCP2221A USB to I2C interface board.
  • Connect the MCP2221A board to a computer via the USB type-C cable.
  • Connect the MCP2221A board output G0 to the KTD2690 board STROBE testpoint via the wire (STROBE) cable.
  • Install GUI software.

Graphical User Interface (GUI)

  • Download and install GUI software located on EVAL Kit Page (https://www.kinet-ic.com/ktd2690evab-mmev01/
  • After installing software, the interface will appear with the status message “USB Device Attached” at the bottom left side of the window.
  • If the displayed message is “USB Device Detached”, make sure the computer is properly connected to the board.

Typical Test Setup Diagram
Use the following test setup for the Quick-Start Procedures.

Graphical User Interface

(GUI) Window

To Check the I2C Connection to the Device

  • In the “Reg 0x06 Device ID Register” section, click on the “Read 0x06” button.
  • The GUI should display the Device ID equal to 001.
  • If the device is not responding (I2C engine timeout), make sure VIN are powered from the 3.6V supply.

To Turn on Flash Mode by I2C Command for 1000ms Duration at 375mA Flash Current

  • Set the Flash Current Code in Reg 0x03 register section by selecting “0x1F: 375mA” in the “LED Flash Current Code” list. Then click on “Write 0x03” button.
  • Turn on Flash Mode in Reg 0x01 register section by selecting “11: Flash Mode” in the Mode Setting list, and then click on “Write 0x01” button.
  • The LED current can be measured briefly by connecting a digital multimeter on P5 header across R3 0.1Ω resistor and GND. For 375mA, the voltmeter should measure a voltage around 38mV.
