RD33774CNT3EVB featuring the MC33774A battery cell controller IC

4 Getting to know the hardware
4.1 Board overview
The RD33774CNT3EVB is a hardware evaluation tool supporting the NXP MC33774A device. The RD33774CNT3EVB implements three MC33774A battery cell controller ICs. The MC33774A is a battery cell controller that monitors up to 18 lithium-ion battery cells. It is designed for use in both automotive and industrial applications. The device performs analog-to-digital conversions on the differential cell voltages. It is also capable of temperature measurements and can forward communication via I2C-bus to other devices. The RD33774CNT3EVB is an ideal platform for rapid prototyping of MC33774A-based applications that involve voltage and temperature sensing.
The RD33774CNT3EVB uses no capacative isolation for offboard communication. The galvanic isolation for onboard communication is established via capacitors.
The RD33774CNT3EVB is also used as part of the 800 V high-voltage battery management system (HVBMS) reference design consisting of the HVBMS battery management unit (BMU)[2] and the 800 V HVBMS battery junction box (BJB)[3].

6 Configuring the hardware
6.1 Battery emulator connection
A minimum of four cells and a maximum of 18 cells can be monitored by one MC33774A. NXP provides an 18cell battery emulator board, BATT-18EMULATOR [1]. This board provides an intuitive way to change the voltage across any of the 18 cells of an emulated battery pack. The board RD33774CNT3EVB can be connected to an 18-cell battery emulator board using the connectors J1_1, J1_2 and J1_3, with the provided supply cable. See Figure 8.

Figure 8.Battery emulator connection
6.2 TPL communication connection
In a high-voltage isolated application with a daisy chain configuration, up to 63 RD33774CNT3EVB boards may be connected. The TPL connections use the COMM connectors J1 and J2 of the FRDMDUALK3664EVB[5] and J2_1 and J2_3 of the RD33774CNT3EVB.
