UG410: EFP0108 Evaluation Kit User s Guide The EFP0108 Evaluation Kit is an excellent way to evaluate and TARGET DEVICE characterise the EFP01 Energy Friendly Power Management IC (PMIC) in the Single-Cell Boost configuration. EFP0108 multi-output PMIC in Single- Cell Boost configuration The EFP01 is an extremely flexible, highly efficient, multi-output power management IC with integrated Coulomb counter for lossless charge measurements. The kit contains KIT FEATURES an EFP0108 Evaluation Board (BRD8100A), which features an EFP0108 in the Single- Cell Boost configuration. The input and output power rails of the EFP01 are exposed on Wire to board terminal blocks for terminal blocks and test points making it easy to evaluate and characterize the EFP01 EFP0108 input and output power connections with external hardware. The board can be plugged into a computer using the USB Mi- cro-B connector for conveniently controlling the EFP01 s register settings and reading Test points for easy probing back data. The EFP0108 Evaluation Board is supported in Simplicity Studio and the Host MCU with two push buttons and EFP Configuration Tool. three LEDs Convenient control of the EFP from a computer SOFTWARE SUPPORT Simplicity Studio EFP Configuration Tool silabs.com Building a more connected world.
