Open Drain (and Open Collector) vs. Push-Pull Outputs: What Your Textbook Left Out Other
Misunderstanding open-drain outputs has quietly burned through FSAE teams' schedules and PCB budgets. This minor mistake is probably made by every team during their first year building an EV.
Precharge System Design Precharge
Overview of the Precharge system, how a precharge circuit safely charges the HV bus capacitance before closing the main IRs, satisfying FSAE EV.5.6 requirements.
