Operation
To operate a pump with the evaluation board, the following steps are necessary:
Step 1:
Connect the micropump of the mp6-series to the board. Due to the orientation of the
connector, the pump needs to be inserted with its metallic contacts upwards.
Step 2:
Choose the pump frequency setting with Jumper 1
Step 3:
Choose the pump amplitude setting with Jumper 2
Step 4:
Choose the power supply setting with Jumper 3 (CON 1- or USB-port).
Step 5:
Connect the board with the voltage source.
3.4.1
Pump frequency setting with jumper JP1
Frequency defined by
clock signal at Pin 3 (CLK)
at screw terminal CON1
Frequency defined by
capacitor C1
(at delivery set to 226 Hz)*
Internal frequency of the
mp6-OEM (100 Hz)
*versions before July 2011 had a setting of 50 Hz
More information on the frequency setting with the CLK signal can be found in the mp6-OEM manual. The
capacitor C1 can as well be changed by re-soldering, see image “OEM-Behavior 2” in the mp6-OEM
manual.
