#Solar Buck-Boost

BoardPCB

Li-Po charging module with CN3063 and TPS63020 for solar and USB power, ensures constant voltage and efficiency. By default it's configure to ouput 3.3v with power saving mode off.

Important you can use a solar panel with a maximum of 6V and minimum of 4.4v, but it's recommendable to use 5V solar panel modules

Configuration:

This modules allows to set the output voltage an working mode by doing some little modifications.

Output Voltage:

This module allows to set an ouput voltage by changing R4 resistor. By default it's 1M giving an ouput of 3.3v, but you can get the following ouput values.

VOUT R4
2.5V 750K
3.3V 1M
3.6V 1.1M
4.5V 1.43M
5V 1.6M

Power saving mode:

  • Power saving mode on: Join R8.
  • Power saving mode off: Join R7.
