From the project

4-layer mixed-signal PCB — autonomous vehicle control & power platform (TI MSPM0, DRV8323, CAN-FD)

4-Layer Mixed-Signal PCB | TI MSPM0G3507 | DRV8323S BLDC FOC | CAN-FD | Power Management

AURORA is the electronics core for an autonomous ground/underwater vehicle — a single 4-layer PCB integrating power conversion, motor control, sensing, and vehicle networking. The board takes a wide-range 18–36V input and regulates it down through three cascaded stages to power an 80MHz Arm Cortex-M0+ MCU, a 3-phase BLDC gate driver with integrated current sensing, a CAN-FD vehicle network node, and a protected analog sensor front end.
