A new module to look at

Post by SciroccoEV »

Just got a set of CALB modules delivered and today I popped the lid on one. I haven't read the part number on the main chip yet.

Finally got around to pulling a PCB. The chip is an Analog Devices LTC6813, which is an 18 channel device.

The BMS is arranged in an unusual way. Black topped modules contain the PCB shown in my first post. The Grey topped modules just have a cell tap PCB. So each Black module is measuring its own cells and that of a linked 'passive' module.
