2. Design Resources

The hardware design packages for the - foxBMS BMS-Master, - BMS-Interface and the - BMS-Slaves are available from the https://github.com/foxBMS/foxbms-2.

The packages include:

• Altium Designer Source Files - schematics - layout - active bill of materials

• Assembly files - BOM in Excel format - 3D model of PCB in step format - schematics in PDF format

• Fabrication files - PCB manufacturing data in ODB++ format - PCB layer stack in PDF format

Note

To open the schematic and layout files, please use Altium Designer.

Note

To manufacture the printed circuit boards, the BOM (Microsoft Excel file) and the ODB++ files in each corresponding folder should be used. Before sending the board layout to a PCB manufacturer, the layout files must be checked against the design rules provided by this manufacturer, since some board layout settings may depend on its specific design rules and may cause violations (e.g., pad layout).
