As the title suggests, I am using the BQ25504 mimicking the solar cell circuit example in the datasheet to verify the chip works. All the threshold voltages programmed with resistors work and behave normally, but the input voltage is not being boosted (input voltage 3V while voltage across supercap and VSTOR stays at 3V).
Aside from this, I am also curious why the datasheet suggests (multiple times) the importance of having the 22uH inductor and VSTOR caps as close as possible to the IC.
Thanks!
