To use this BMS772 kit, you will need:
LiPo battery pack
3S to 6S with cell balancing connector - Voltage range of 6V to 26V
Suitable charger for the type of battery
Soldering iron to configure the board
External Thermistor temperature sensor with cable and JST-GH 2-pin connector (optional)
Debugger:
Segger J-Link Mini debugger
PEMicro universal multilink
or other suitable JTAG/SWD debugger
Note: The HoverGames Drone Kit (KIT-HGDRONEK66) and/or FMU Kit (RDDRONE-FMUK66) both include a DCD-LZ adapter and Segger J-Link Mini EDU and an FTDI USBUART-3v3 cable.
By using the DCD-LZ interface and USBUART cable you will also gain access to the command line interface (CLI) of the board.
S32 Design Studio for ARM-based MCUs (recommended)
Alternatively : PX4 or NuttX build environment depending on what code source is used.
PX4/NuttX board target example code (optional, see Software guide)
Note: The RDDRONE-BMS772 board allows to open the charge circuit when the battery is overcharging , to perform cell balancing and to monitor all cell voltages. Therefore the charger does not need to have a cell terminal connector.
