ADBMS6830

The ADBMS6830 is a virtualized integrated circuit designed to mimic the behavior of a real cell monitoring device. Within the VeriStand project, it is represented as a Device item in the configuration tree and is emulated on the FPGA of the Real-Time target upon project deployment. Each ADBMS6830 device in the Ring supports the monitoring of up to 16 battery cells, along with 10 GPIO channels. Passive balancing functionality is also included.

Section Channels

Expand the Device section in the configuration tree to display the following VeriStand channels. Channel values can be dynamically modified during execution.

Some channel values are represented in hexadecimal or binary notation. For detailed instructions, please refer to How to Manage Hexadecimal and Binary Data in VeriStand.

Description

Enable

Input

Binary

 

1

Enables or disables the emulated device during execution.

  • 0 - Device is disabled and bypassed for SPI transmission.

  • 1 - Device is enabled. Normal operation.

CRC Check

Input

Binary

 

1

Enables or disables the cyclic redundancy check (CRC) of the command packet error code (PEC) and data packet error code (DPEC) of the SPI transmissions received by the emulated device.

  • 0 - No CRC check is performed.

  • 1 - CRC checking is enabled. Normal operation.

Port A Enable

Input

Binary

 

1

Enables or disables SPI transmission on the Port A side of the emulated device. Use this channel to simulate a fault in the SPI communication.

  • 0 - SPI transmission is disabled on the Port A side of the device.

  • 1 - SPI transmission is enabled. Normal operation.

Port B Enable

Input

1

Enables or disables SPI transmission on the Port B side of the emulated device. Use this channel to simulate a fault in the SPI communication.

  • 0 - SPI transmission is disabled on the Port B side of the device.

  • 1 - SPI transmission is enabled. Normal operation.

Redundancy Fault

Input

Binary

 

0

Forces a digital redundancy fault on the emulated device and stores a digital redundancy fault code in place of the ADC result.

  • 0 - Digital redundancy check passes.

  • 1 - Digital redundancy check fails.

Selftest Fault

Input

Binary

 

0

Obsolete. This channel does not impact the results of the emulation.

CRC Error

Input

Binary

 

0

Forces a CRC error on the SPI transmissions originating from the emulated device.

  • 0 - Generated device response contains the correct CRC value.

  • 1 - Generated device response contains an incorrect CRC value.

Input

Decimal

V

0

Emulates the Resistor Voltage measurement on the device. The measured value is stored in the VRES memory location within Status Register Group B.

VMV

Input

Decimal

V

0

Emulates the V- to V- voltage measurement on the device. The measured value is stored in the VPV memory location within Auxiliary Register Group D.

VPV

Input

Decimal

V

0

Emulates the V+ to V- voltage measurement on the device. The measured value is stored in the VPV memory location within Auxiliary Register Group D.

Cell Measurement x

Input

Decimal

V

0

Emulates the cell voltage measurement of Cell x. This measurement is taken between pin Cx and pin C(x-1) on a real device.

Redundant Cell Measurement x

Input

Decimal

V

0

Emulates the redundant voltage measurement of Cell x. This measurement is taken between pin Sx and pin S(x-1) on a real device.

GPIO x

Input

Decimal

V

0

Emulates pins GPIO1 through GPIO10 of a real device.

Serial ID

Input

Hexadecimal

 

0

Sets the Serial ID (SID) of the emulated device.

To set the Default Value of this channel in the system definition, convert it to decimal notation. See How to Manage Hexadecimal and Binary Data in VeriStand Channels for more information.

Open Wire Cx

Input

Binary

 

0

Emulates an open wire between the external cells. This open wire condition can be detected using the ADOW command.

  • 0 - Uninterrupted connection at pin Cx.

  • 1 - Open wire at pin Cx.

Last Command Received

Output

Hexadecimal

 

0

Outputs the last command received from the SPI Master.

Command CRC Check

Output

Binary

 

0

Binary flag indicating a Command CRC mismatch in the last transmission received from the SPI Master.

  • 0 - No CRC mismatch detected.

  • 1 - CRC mismatch detected.

Data CRC Check

Output

Binary

 

0

Binary flag indicating a Data CRC mismatch in the last transmission received from the SPI Master.

  • 0 - No CRC mismatch detected.

  • 1 - CRC mismatch detected.

PWM Discharge Control x

Output

Binary

 

0

Outputs the duty cycle of the PWM controlling the balancing switch for cell Cx. The value is represented in 4-bit binary format and corresponds to the PWMCn value. This channel can be mapped to the input of an external cell model to regulate its discharge process.
