Contains all board essentials (MCU, CAN, etc.)

Uses mezzanine connector to plug into carrier boards

See MCU Schematic Capture Controller Board for more details.

Plugs into connector board for self-test

Allows verification of IOs, CAN, etc.

Common driver library - supports ARM, X86, MSP430

Simplifies code porting and allows us to unit test and simulate boards on X86

Default project template to use when developing new boards

Handles basic events, FSM, uses the HAL

Includes makefile and recommended project organization

Holds 18650 cells and runs them through automated charge and discharge cycles

Collect data to determine their capacity/health for cell matching

Responsible for driver interface - steering wheel, signals, dashboard, pedals, and lights

Involves design of system and appearance

etc.

Requires communicating with motor controllers or motor controller interface

Run local motor controller network at 1Mbps and isolate the ID system to the motor controllers

Allows us to determine our own protocol entirely, could handle precharge/discharge sequencing

Handles LV and HV power distributionLV: Driver controls, motor controllers, fans, motor precharge controllers

HV: Battery, solar

Analog precharge/discharge controller using 12V relays

Simplifies power distribution and reduces board size

Embedded device is hooked into the car and communicates wirelessly with a client device in the chase car

Allows us to monitor the car remotely

Evaluate different AFEs and current sensing for monitoring our lithium-ion pack

Develop SOC algorithms

Work with mechanical to develop a battery pack design that is reliable and safe

Look at increasing pack voltage

Develop array for MSXII

Evaluate MPPTs
