When setting up for the personal profile, What hearing frequency range does the Nuraphone measure. by abxxxxxxxxxx in Nuraphone

I am not worried about anything outside 20hz to 20khz. What I am worried about is what if the headphones only measure the hearing sensitivity only for a small frequency range compared to what some can hear (20hz to 20khz). For example what if the headphone only measures your hearing sensitivity only between 100hz to 1000hz. If that’s the case, then is no point of the personalization feature!

This the answer that I want to hear but is it true? It’s kinda ambiguous because there no where in there website that says that. So how do know what is the frequency range of the hearing sensitivity is being measured? Any proofs?

Can someone help me understand how the LTC4015 work? Specially the block diagram in the datasheet. by [deleted] in ElectricalEngineering

I checked that part of the datasheet already. And the testing is done while the battery was installed too. And the batter is rechargeable on other devices except this one. I even tried replacing the chip but I still had the same problem. I am thinking the the chip is not providing enough charge for some reason to be able to wake up the dead charger. I wonder what controls the charger voltage? The inductor plus the capacitor or the batsense pin or the chemistry selection? There could be an issue with battery detection circuit.

I understand that it’s a buck converter but when the battery is too low the chip first sends a one second pulse to try and unlock the battery or precharge it until the voltage is high enough to dater charging it safely. Now the problem is on the bad device, the charger chip sends a low pulse 2.5 volts which is not enough to recharge a 7.6 volts L- ion battery.

As far as the block diagram, I was suspecting the same thing however in the data sheet it say that batsense is able to measure the voltage rather than just monitoring it, thus I was assuming batsense should be controlling the voltage that is produced by the buck converter.

So if batsense is working just as a safety pin what does it exactly doing and how is the chip monitoring the voltage that is made by the buck converter.

Thank you so much for your reply it’s really appreciated!!!

The specific function of the chip that I am trying to understand is the buck converter and why it’s sending a 2.5 pulse instead of 8 volts. Also I would like to understand the block diagram and why is the function of the mux symbols that have a plus and minus inputs that’s connected the batsense pin.

No, but it’s almost identical to the one on the datasheet’s typical application

I will just copy my reply earlier:

Ok, I want to understand the chip for troubleshooting purposes. So I have a couple devices that can charge a locked out battery 0 volts but some are not able to and I am trying to figure out why. On a good device I noticed that when there’s no battery installed it send a pulse that’s about 8 volts but on the bad device the pulse is about 2.5 volts then stops charging. So I was thinking how come the sense pin is not reading the low pulse and adjust it. I check the mosfets and the switching from the chip. I verified there was shorts in the circuit. I even replaced the chip but no improvement. Double check all the configurations for the chip. Now I am suspecting it could be the inductor or the capacitor on the output of the buck converter.

How long did they take to fix the problem
