  • Read up on and analyze previous revs of UV Cutoff

  • Add a charging circuit?

    • Will also require active protection (over-voltage, over-temperature, and overcurrent, see section 8.3.B in ASC regs)

  • Make UV cutoff compatible with aux battery?

    • Use the same PCB for both batteries, but some passives might need to change to adjust reference voltages, etc.

      • OO: If we have a set of passives for the auxiliary, in conjunction with the existing passives for the actual battery, and use jumpers that we can solder or de-solder in order to connect the UV Cutoff to any or both batteries when we want.

      • Have two sets of passives: two sets of VBAT load switches, buck converter, and jumpers after each of these.

      • AUX battery powers fan and horn but when that runs out, switches to main pack

      • the main pack is may be 24V AUX is 12V, maybe we will use a 24V aux if main battery is 24 and use less fewer circuitry

  • Replace the high-side P-channel MOSFET reverse polarity protection with a low-side N-channel MOSFET for reverse polarity protection?

  • The fuse could probably be replaced with an e-fuse to have a more precise current limit.
