Custom BMS: common questions
What microcontroller does the Custom BMS use?
The Custom BMS is built around the STM32F405RGTX, from the STM32 family.
How big is the Custom BMS PCB?
The Custom BMS measures 104.2 × 59.7 mm, has 4 copper layers and is 1.6 mm thick.
How many components are on the Custom BMS?
192 components, from 71 distinct parts, with part numbers taken from the project's own BOM. The full bill of materials is listed on this page.
Where can I download the Custom BMS design files?
From the SCFormulaElectric/USC-Electrical-Systems repository on GitHub, which has the KiCad layout, the schematic and the BOM; the links under Design files point to each one.
Can I use the Custom BMS design in my own project?
The repository has no license, so all rights stay with SCFormulaElectric. Use it as a reference, and ask the author before reusing the design.
Can I test firmware for the Custom BMS without the hardware?
Yes. HardLabs builds a simulation of the board from its netlist and BOM, so you can run and debug STM32 firmware against it before you order a PCB.
