Controller/Breakout Board | The “brain” of the boards | |
Power Distribution | This board is responsible for powering other boards. It chooses between aux battery and main battery, and decides who gets power when the car is operating on aux, in a fault, about to turn on/off, etc. It also control the front/rear lights. | |
UV Cutoff | Disconnects the battery if the voltage falls below a certain threshold. Provides additional protection features, including
| |
Centre Console | Gets the state of the buttons in the centre console: Power, Drive, Reverse, Idle, etc. | |
Motor Controller Interface (MCI) | Talks to motor controllers, we control the motors/get motor information through this board. | |
BMS Carrier | This board is responsible for protecting the battery. Its responsibilities are:
| |
BMS AFE | Used to measure cell voltage and temperatures from each individual battery module | |
BMS Current Sense | Measures the total current of the battery pack. | |
DCDC | Converts the high voltage (110-150V) to the necessary low voltage of ~13V | |
Power Select | ||
Pedal | Measures the pedal angle. | |
Steering | Used for measuring steering angle as well as control stalks (lights, signals, horn). | |
Solar Sense/MPPTs | Solar sense: Measures the array module and array voltage, temperature, current MPPT: Converting high current low voltage output from the solar panels into low current high voltage power compatible with our batteries and motors | |
Steering Stalk |
| |
Motor Testing | To test the motor and motor controller work correctly | |
Electrical Systems PVDR/VDR | Comprehensive design report including technical documents mechanical systems, electrical systems, batteries, and solar cells. |
