058: PC-2x15A Ideal Diode / BattShare

The PC – 2x 15A is a two-supply current sharing controller that incorporates MOSFET ideal diodes. The diodes block reverse and shoot-through currents during start-up and fault conditions. Their forward voltage is adjusted to share the load currents between supplies. Unlike other sharing methods, neither a shared bus nor trim pins on the supply are required.

The dual function of this device makes it possible to integrate it into applications, where either a redundant power supply is required, or a 50/50 current share between 2 power supplies, even if they’re on 2 different main batteries (GND bridge required).

The PL - 2x15A can be also used in normal remote-controlled applications without Power-Cube and flight controller. For example, connect directly 2x 2S LiPo (doesn't matter if different capacity) to the two inputs and the output to the receiver or servo rail. Then you have a redundant power supply, with a total capacity of mAh / LiPo 1 plus mAh / LiPo 2.

Scope of delivery:

1x PC - 2x 15A Board

2x Input cable / Molex / Click-Mate / 2.0 / L=200mm, in red/black.

4x Output cable / JR Servo connector / L=200mm, in red/black.

1x Transparent shrinking tube

 

REM: The cables are delivered separately and need to be soldered onto the board. This allows the cable length can be adjusted before installation, to match the setup of the system
