AEM Electronics Battery Management System Satellite - BMS Satellite Module for VCU

The AEM EV Battery Management System (BMS-18) is comprised of three components: | 1. VCU | 2.BMS-18 Master | 3. BMS-18 Satellite(s) | The BMS is implemented as two different Module types: the BMS Master and the BMS Satellite. Each Module is capable of measuring up to 18 cells and 3 temperatures (thermistors) but the Master also contains the CAN communication interface and J1772 charging specific connections needed for each battery pack. | The VCU communicates with the BMS via the Master Module and all battery packs need at least one Master unit. The Satellite Modules are connected to their Master via a high-speed serial interface (isoSPI) that allows additional units to be daisy chained together, adding as many Satellites as necessary for the battery pack configuration. | The VCU is responsible for all BMS control logic. All setup and calibration items can be modified using the AEMCal user interface.
