Precautions

SAFETY CAUTIONS

  • Li-ion and Li-po batteries are quite unstable. They may cause fire, personal injury, or property damage if they're not properly recharged or used.
  • Do not reversely connect the polarities when recharging or discharging the battery. Do not use an inferior charger/charging panel to recharge the battery.
  • Do not mix use old batteries with new ones, avoid using batteries of different brands.
  • When buying a Lithium battery, should always make sure the battery specification is compatible with the expansion board. *Choose batteries from the formal manufacturer, and ensure the batteries will work stably and safely by aging test.
  • Lithium batteries have a limited cycle life, they will also deteriorate as time goes by. Should be replaced with new ones when the batteries reach their max cycle life or work over two years, whichever comes first.
  • Should be placed carefully and properly, keep it away from inflammable and explosive articles, away from children, and avoid any safety accident caused by careless storage.

Working Principle & Demo

GPIO Protocol (Configurable Protocol)

  • Based on software compilation, this protocol requires RP2040 and Raspberry Pi to run the demo.
  • As the GPIO headers of RP2040 and Raspberry Pi are connected, the running state of Raspberry Pi can be detected and its shutdown can be prompted.
RP2040 GPIO RPI GPIO Description
GPIO22 D20 Raspberry Pi soft shutdown pin, pulled low by default by RP2040, pulled high when prompted for Raspberry Pi software shutdown.
The Raspberry Pi should detect that the pin is pulled high and then execute the shutdown procedure.
GPIO23 D21 Raspberry Pi run pins, pulled high by default by the Raspberry Pi after powering on.
The RP2040 can detect whether the Raspberry Pi is powered on or not through this pin.

Note: You should check whether there is an error reported after the execution of the above operation, there is an error reported according to the prompts to correct before continuing.

Demo Usage

Get the Demo

cd ~
wget https://files.waveshare.com/upload/2/27/Power-example.7z
7z x ./Power-example.7z

Compile the Demo

  • The default demo is for periodic power-on.
cd ~/Power-example/build/
export PICO_SDK_PATH=/home/pi/pico/pico-sdk
cmake ..
make -j

Program the Demo

  • Note: Program the demo will cause the RP2040 to reset and the power supply to be interrupted.
  • Therefore, you should use the Raspberry Pi's power port for power supply instead of the Power Management HAT(B) when programming.

Program via SWD Interface

  • We already connect the SWD interface of the RP2040 to the Raspberry Pi, and you can directly operate it through Openocd.
openocd -f interface/raspberrypi-swd.cfg -f target/rp2040.cfg -c "program ./Power_Management_HAT.elf verify reset exit"

Program via USB

  • The Raspberry Pi Foundation has cured the UF2 bootloader within the RP2040 by following a few steps:
  1. Connect the USB connector of the Raspberry Pi and the USB connector of the board.
  2. Press the Reset key and the BOOT key.
  3. Release the Reset key first and then the BOOT key.
  4. Drag and drop the corresponding files into the pop-up mass storage.
  • You can refer to the following diagram (the diagram is the official Raspberry Pi GIF for the Hello World demo).

Common Rules/Functions

Status Indicator

  • The status indicators all follow the rules below:
  1. In the shutdown state or power off state, the status indicator flashes at a frequency of about 0.83HZ (slow flashing).
  2. Boot-up state or power-on state, the status indicator about 2.5HZ frequency flashing (fast flashing).
  3. Waiting for the power on or waiting for the power off, the status indicator is always on.

Judging by Current

  • Judging by Current
  1. This function can judge the device on and off in real time and turn off the power to save energy.
  2. This feature is disabled by default (can be turned on via ". /examples/examples.h/USE_CURRENT_TO_CHECK_PI_STATUS").
  3. By determining whether the current value is less than the shutdown current if it is, the device is considered to be shut down, and the power is turned off (shutdown current setting . /examples/examples.h/Shutdown_Current_Ma, you need to adjust it according to your own device, otherwise the function will not work or the device will not be powered on).

Power on and off

  • Power on
  1. Power on via RTC or the key.
  2. Turn on the power, and determine whether the power has been turned on through GPIO, the default maximum wait time for power on is 90 seconds, more than the maximum value is considered to have been turned on (the maximum wait time is set by lib/Power_Management_Lib/Power_Management_Lib.c/Power_Wait_Time_S).
  • Soft shutdown
  1. Soft shutdown triggered by key press.
  2. The default maximum wait time for power off is 60 seconds, if the maximum wait value is exceeded, the power will be forced to shut down (the maximum wait time is set by lib/Power_Management_Lib/Power_Management_Lib.c/Wait_Boot_). Time_S).
  • Forced shutdown process
  1. Shutdown triggered by RTC, long key press, and current.
  2. Forced power off and device shutdown.

Button_Ctr Demo

  • Implement function: Use the PWR button to power on/off.
  1. When the Raspberry Pi is turned off.
    • When the PWR button is pressed, it turns on.
  2. When the Raspberry Pi is powered on.
    • Default long press PWR button more than 2S but less than 8S, try to soft shut down the Raspberry Pi.
    • Default long press PWR button more than 8S then try to power off directly.

Period_Time Demo

  • Timed power on/off:
  1. Power on when the time reaches the specified time Power_On_Time (default is 9:00:30).
  2. Shut down when the time reaches the specified time Power_Off_Time (default is 10:00:00).

Cycle_Time Demo

  • Cycle power on/off
  1. Power_On_Keep_Time (default is 1800S).
  2. Power_Off_Keep_Time (default is 3600S).

FAQ

 Answer:
The theoretical maximum output current is 3A, the actual maximum output current is limited by the power supply, such as using a 3.7V lithium battery (when fully charged), the maximum output current can reach 2A.

{{{5}}}


 Answer:
It is related to the power supply and output current. If the matching 3000mah3.7V lithium battery is used, the output current will remain at 1A, and it can be used for about 2 hours (depending on the temperature and battery status).
