Questions

How big is the Custom BMS PCB?

It measures 104.2 × 59.7 mm and has 4 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the Custom BMS use?

246 parts, built around the SN65HVD230DR, TPS563300DRL, AMS1117-3.3 and BQ79616PAPRQ1. The full list of its parts is on this page, with links to each part's symbol and footprint where PCBKit's library has them.

Where can I download the Custom BMS KiCad files?

From the SCFormulaElectric/USC-Electrical-Systems repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is 2025-26/Boards/Custom_BMS/Custom_BMS.kicad_pcb. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the Custom BMS design in my own project?

Its repository states no licence, so its author keeps all rights: ask SCFormulaElectric before reusing the design.
