Why not optoisolators. Much easier than having to make dozens of optical fiber connections. Bob

My fantasy BMS would be to have the cell modules communicate with the downstream electronics by way of fiber optic cable. Think of it, no galvanic coupling, complete lack of magnetic induction pickup (no shielding needed), wideband data path, low/no RF generation. A very simple system could be a loop-through with repeaters at each module for data from individual cells (would need each module to transmit it's address), while a more full-featured version would use a star/hub configuration (simpler, but larger tangle of cables). We just need a home splicing/termination kit and it's time to rock... > Only complaint I would make is that it uses wireless communication - > using CAN BUS or 100BaseT1 would be better _______________________________________________ UNSUBSCRIBE: http://www.evdl.org/help/index.html#usub ARCHIVE: http://www.evdl.org/archive/index.html INFO: http://lists.evdl.org/listinfo.cgi/ev-evdl.org Please discuss EV drag racing at NEDRA (http://groups.yahoo.com/group/NEDRA) _______________________________________________ UNSUBSCRIBE: http://www.evdl.org/help/index.html#usub ARCHIVE: http://www.evdl.org/archive/index.html INFO: http://lists.evdl.org/listinfo.cgi/ev-evdl.org Please discuss EV drag racing at NEDRA (http://groups.yahoo.com/group/NEDRA)
