Other Parts Discussed in Thread: TIDA-00049, TIDA-00657, TIDM-BUCKBOOST-BIDIR, TIDM-SOLAR-DCDC
Dear Experts,
I came across the TI’s TIDA-00120 reference design and I’d like to ask you if there is possibility to make a slight changes to the MCU code ( or HW, or both ) and turn this interleaved buck into buck-boost MPPT-Charger. Let’s say the panel is 12-22VDC with VMP: 17.5VDC and IMP: 4.52A and the battery is 11-16.8VDC ( the voltages are overlapping so the DC/DC conversion should be buck-boost, as I understand) From the HW point of view the topology of TIDA-00120 should be OK ( correct me if I am wrong ) , the problem is the SW to perform the buck-boost. Is that correct ?
Any advice would be greatly appreciated!
