Description/Purpose

  • The Scrutineering Board allows for the injection of arbitrary voltages to test BPS voltage, current and temperature setpoints. This board connects to 2 VoltTemp boards to inject voltages/temperatures and to Amperes to simulate charge/discharge.

Requirements

  • Switches between battery voltage and scrutineering voltage injection using banana jacks.

  • Switches between shunt and scrutineering pass through using banana jacks.

  • Switches between battery temperature and scrutineering temperature injection

    • Connection via separate Thermistor Resistor Divider PCB

Application Note

Context

Location of the board:

Connects to two battery segments (7 and 8). Below Amperes and above BPS Leader.
