Step Down 11 Click

Step Down 11 Click demo application is developed using the NECTO Studio, ensuring compatibility with mikroSDK's open-source libraries and tools. Designed for plug-and-play implementation and testing, the demo is fully compatible with all development, starter, and mikromedia boards featuring a mikroBUS™ socket.

Click Library

  • Author : Stefan Ilic
  • Date : Oct 2023.
  • Type : I2C type

Software Support

Example Description

This library contains API for the Step Down 11 Click driver. This driver provides the functions to set the output voltage treshold.

Example Libraries

  • MikroSDK.Board
  • MikroSDK.Log
  • Click.StepDown11

Example Key Functions

  • stepdown11_cfg_setup Config Object Initialization function.
void stepdown11_cfg_setup ( stepdown11_cfg_t *cfg );
  • stepdown11_init Initialization function.
err_t stepdown11_init ( stepdown11_t *ctx, stepdown11_cfg_t *cfg );
  • stepdown11_default_cfg Click Default Configuration function.
err_t stepdown11_default_cfg ( stepdown11_t *ctx );
  • stepdown11_get_resistance Step Down 11 get the resistance function.
err_t stepdown11_get_resistance ( stepdown11_t *ctx, uint8_t wiper_sel, float *res_kohm );
  • stepdown11_set_voltage Step Down 11 set voltage output function.
err_t stepdown11_set_voltage ( stepdown11_t *ctx, float v_out );
  • stepdown11_set_mode Step Down 11 set S-CONF device configuration mode function.
err_t stepdown11_set_mode ( stepdown11_t *ctx, float sconf_mode );

Application Init

Initialization of I2C module and log UART. After driver initialization, default settings sets output voltage to 1 V.

void application_init ( void ) 
{
    log_cfg_t log_cfg;  /**< Logger config object. */
    stepdown11_cfg_t stepdown11_cfg;  /**< Click config object. */

    /** 
     * Logger initialization.
     * Default baud rate: 115200
     * Default log level: LOG_LEVEL_DEBUG
     * @note If USB_UART_RX and USB_UART_TX 
     * are defined as HAL_PIN_NC, you will 
     * need to define them manually for log to work. 
     * See @b LOG_MAP_USB_UART macro definition for detailed explanation.
     */
    LOG_MAP_USB_UART( log_cfg );
    log_init( &logger, &log_cfg );
    log_info( &logger, " Application Init " );

    // Click initialization.
    stepdown11_cfg_setup( &stepdown11_cfg );
    STEPDOWN11_MAP_MIKROBUS( stepdown11_cfg, MIKROBUS_1 );
    if ( I2C_MASTER_ERROR == stepdown11_init( &stepdown11, &stepdown11_cfg ) ) 
    {
        log_error( &logger, " Communication init." );
        for ( ; ; );
    }
    
    if ( STEPDOWN11_ERROR == stepdown11_default_cfg ( &stepdown11 ) )
    {
        log_error( &logger, " Default configuration." );
        for ( ; ; );
    }
    
    log_info( &logger, " Application Task " );
}

Application Task

This example demonstrates the use of the Step Down 11 Click board™ by changing output voltage every 5 seconds starting from 1 V up to 5 V.

void application_task ( void ) 
{
    for ( uint8_t vout = 1; vout <= 5; vout++ )
    {
        log_printf( &logger, " Set output voltage %dV \r\n", ( uint16_t ) vout );
        stepdown11_set_voltage ( &stepdown11, vout );
        Delay_ms ( 1000 );
        Delay_ms ( 1000 );
        Delay_ms ( 1000 );
        Delay_ms ( 1000 );
        Delay_ms ( 1000 );
    }
}

Application Output

This Click board can be interfaced and monitored in two ways:

  • Application Output - Use the "Application Output" window in Debug mode for real-time data monitoring. Set it up properly by following this tutorial.
  • UART Terminal - Monitor data via the UART Terminal using a USB to UART converter. For detailed instructions, check out this tutorial.

Additional Notes and Information

The complete application code and a ready-to-use project are available through the NECTO Studio Package Manager for direct installation in the NECTO Studio. The application code can also be found on the MIKROE GitHub account.
