proper HW

gkasprow opened this issue · comments

I designed proper HW for emulator
https://github.com/gkasprow/battery_emulator/wiki
I'm waiting for comments from you, and I can add some features needed for other batteries.
I need it for LEAF batteries.
The schematics are here

Nice work @gkasprow !

We are actually trying to move away from the LilyGo boards completely, due to the need for 2x CAN buses, and CAN-FD. This new board design that one Discord member is working on has built in relays for precharge and contactor control:

But having more alternatives is always better! Feel free to make a separate Wiki page about your add-on board!

I like it! Do you have schematics? I'd like merge these two projects into one.

We are working on open hardware projects for years. Example is https://sinara-hw.github.io/. It consits of nearly 90 sub-projects.
We have the sponsor for the boards. So I can produce let's say 10 pcs and give them away to the active community members for intensive tests.

More peeps on the hardware can be no bad thing. Thanks Greg.

Yes, but it's better to support and maintain a single HW version at least from a software point of view.
That's why I need schematics to make my HW compatible with the SW you are developing.

I added second CAN and fixed the updated schematic ; if there is interest I can also integrate Lilygo board into my board as a single design.
For the moment I ordered PCBs because I have the Lilygo boards and will use them.
