STMicroelectronics STEVAL-BMS114TX BMS Evaluation Board

STMicroelectronics STEVAL-BMS114TX Battery Management System (BMS) Evaluation Board operates from 4 to 14 battery cells. The board uses the embedded transceiver to ensure an isolated connection to an external MCU. Based on the L99BM114 Li-ion battery monitoring and protection chip, the board facilitates high-reliability applications and the L99BM1T general-purpose SPI to isolated SPI bidirectional transceiver. The L99BM114 monitors cells and battery node status via stack voltage measurement, cell voltage measurement, temperature measurement, and coulomb counting.

The STMicroelectronics STEVAL-BMS114TX supplies an elaborate monitoring network to sense the voltage of each cell and the current of the entire battery pack.
