NPM1304-EK

NPM1304-EK is an evaluation kit for nPM1304, a highly sophisticated Power Management IC (PMIC) with battery charging and unique system management features. By connecting to the nPM PowerUP app found in nRF Connect for Desktop, all settings of the nPM1304 can easily be configured through an intuitive GUI and exported as code to be implemented in your MCUs application. The kit itself offers JST battery connectors for batteries with or without internal NTC, and male pin headers for access to all nPM1304 connections. In addition, three LEDs and four pushbuttons are implemented for ease of use when evaluating the GPIO and LED diver functionality of the PMIC. Suitable for evaluation of nPM1304 PMIC, power management for breadboard prototyping of embedded power applications, battery charge controller board for charging prototypes without integrated PMICs applications.
