DD Current Sense / Comms

✅🚹

Any update on the DD Current Sense part selection? Any update on Comms?

• Set up a one antenna set up for software

• Make more RS422 boards

• DD current sense

@Farris Matar

PDB/OTS BMS

✅🚹

• Reviewed current sense schematic

• Looked for the battery

  • Gunna have to get a new one

• Work on how to use the BMS

@Logan Hartford

Lead

✅

• Met with some people from the team to discuss how to properly set up an altium project

• Met with Peter to discuss re-vamping our onboarding process

• Didn’t get a whole lot done this week, will try and get some stuff done the weekend

• Reveiw 5V layout

• Get team licenses sorted out

• Make a parts creation and project creation page in confluence

• Try and streamline the training process a bit

• Work with Rayaan to get everything order for the MVP power set up

  • Sunday morning

• Meet with David for RS422

• Meet with billy on sunday

Any update on the power replacements?

• Found a suitable 17V buck

• Look into the Zed2 power

• Meet with @Logan Hartford

Any update on the DD Current Sense part selection? Any update on Comms?

• I see the format for sop and will look into it and create a more detailed document for battery charging

• will continue to talk to Formular EE for battery charging(maybe need to have a meeting to talk about it?)

• meeting with you on Sunday to learn the proper way of creating a git project

• meeting with Farris on Monday and learn some electronics basics + how to understand the data sheet and create the correct schematic

• What is the bare minimum electrical system?

• What are all the all the ways we can achieve this?

• New requirements--Need to power:

  • Jetson - 17V, 10W-30W

  • Gimbal

    • Search up nominal voltage and current draw for gimbal motor

    • Zed2: 380mA @5V

  • Vector Nav - 5V, 250 mA

  • Anenna - 24V 1.5A

  • Pi - 5V 3A

  • What are the power requirements for each of these?

• Encoders need 5V, mostly a current ref

  • 20mA per encoder

  • 48-5V buck

• 48V to each motor

• Apparently the Odrive supplies 5V to the encoders so no need for a buck

Total SAR Power Requirments (strikeout means secured)

Rayaan

• How can this be done?

• How easy of a project is this?

• 3/5 tough

• Use resistors divider board to validate basic functions

  • For checking over-voltage?

  • Hook up the cells to the BMS and test basic functions

• Someone has definitely done battery emulation before

  • google it

@Farris Matar (starting next week)

• With vs without the BMS

• What is the safest way?

• What is the most convenient way?

• Any concerns?

• Should always charge it using a battery charger

• Have the BMS hooked up as well

• Connector solution

• Put safety warnings, storage instructions etc

@Yuchen Lin

• Do we have time for a work session this weekend?

• Yes

Rishith

• What exactly does this consist of?

• What needs to be done to verify?

• Send a digital signal to the neopixels, bitshifts

• Just need to hit it with PWM to set the colour of the whole thing

  • arduino town

@David Choi / Rishith

/ @Farris Matar

• working on instability issue

  • Should be fine with one antena

PDB Rev4 - Design and Assemble the PDB

Dec 19, 2022

• Performance testing complete

• Some small schematic and footprint issues across the board

• 17V performed well except on start up

• 5V is very noisey

• One BMS has been assembled

• Basic non-performacne and non-firmware tests have been done

• An off the shelf replacement is being sourced

Science

Apr 19, 2023

• Need one or two people to own the assembly and testing of the science boards and work with @Ivan Lim and @Wolfgang Windholtz (Deactivated) to ensure the board is ready for competition.

• Found two assembled boards but none of the parts if @Ivan Lim / @Wolfgang Windholtz (Deactivated) have any ideas please let me know. Otherwise we’ll just order more parts.

• @Ivan Lim / @Wolfgang Windholtz (Deactivated) Both of the assembled boards are missing a lot of parts, do the boards have a bunch of population options?

SPI LVDS

@Farris Matar

Apr 19, 2023

• SPI LVDS Host boards should have been assembled

• SPI LVDS Peripheral parts and boards should be in the bay now, pending assembly

• Harnesses need to be ordered in order to wire them up together and do testing
