This repo was originally @willemcvu 's personal AERO boards repo. From 2019-20 onward it will be used by all of AERO to store boards designed for the AERO cars.
Some are finished and have been produced, tested, etc. Others have not. Up to you to figure out if a particular board might be useful for your needs.
If you do produce a board, let me know! I'd love to know what you're using it for.

(Often out-of-date) descriptions of what these boards do.
Monitors the current/voltage to/from a battery and power consumer. Includes a relay on the battery, ATMega328p, and CANBUS interface. This board has been produced and partially tested.
A generic Arduino Uno CANBUS shield. Once hooked up to an Uno, it is the same circuit used for all the boards with CANBUS+ATMega328p found here. Untested and unproduced.
Converts ~300VDC to ~12VDC using a DCM CHiP module from Vicor Power. Can do 400W peak, will dissapate almost 40W at that load, so it has a 19mm Vicor heatsink, model #(?can't remember). Version 1 has clearance issues. Version 2 is an intermediate version with those issues mostly fixed. Version 3 is still be designed, and it will be the final version. None have been produced or tested, and all probably have issues (v1 and v2 have known issues, and v3 isn't finished).
Simple 4-channel PWM fan controller with ATMega328p and CANBUS interface. Tested, works great. Should be able to do ~15A a channel, although this hasn't been tested, and is probably not recommended.
Contains all the high-voltage interface circuitry. Hosts a Vicor DC/DC converter module that generates 12V for the entire car. Also controls fans, pump, and brakelight, and includes CANBUS interface, NTC inputs, and some assorted other functionality. "standoffs-biggerbox" is the current working version. Competition-tested, working 100%.
