Automotive Body Control Module Driver Reference Design

description

This article refers to the address: http://

TIDA-00296 is a reference design that focuses on TI's portfolio of high-side and low-side relays, motors, and load drivers. We selected loads for this design (door locks, window lift motors, seat heaters, HVAC, lights, and LEDs) to demonstrate the range of loads that BCM can drive and how TI solutions can meet these areas.

characteristic

Flexible and reliable driver products for driving multiple loads: high-side front FET driver (LM9061/TPIC44H01), seat heater, low-side driver (TPL7407L), headlights, high-side driver (LMD18400), HVAC fan, car Window/wiper actuator, linear LED driver (TPS92630), LED.

Smart drives provide diagnostics and protection through I2C and SPI

Reverse polarity protection for the power stage of the design

The front FET driver is used to drive discrete FETs, so the design can handle load drive requirements flexibly

Highlights the ability of BCM to directly drive loads with higher current requirements (~4500mA)

Central body control module

Antenk manufactures a wide range of application specific board stacking connectors which were designed and built to specific customer requirements. Our experienced staff has developed custom products in a variety of contact styles, pitches and stacking heights. Our designs range from new concepts to duplicating existing market products identically or with improvements. Many desigsn are produced using automated manufacturing processes to increase reliability and provide significant cost savings


Board to Board Connector

Board-to-board (BTB) connectors as the name indicates is used for connecting circuits board together. This kind of connectors are suitable for stacking circuits boards one over another. Flat flexible cables can be avoided using these kinds of connectors; moreover it makes the entire unit more compact. The commonly used BTB connectors are SMT connectors and Berg Strip. We will discuss about them in detail in the following section.

SMT CONNECTOR
Surface Mount Technology (SMT) connector is a commonly found board-to-board connector in advanced circuit boards. As the name indicates this connector is available only in surface mount model. It is carefully mounted on to the solder pads on the surface of the PCB.
SMT connectors are ideal candidate for miniaturization due to their small area of occupancy and stacking height. They are suitable for double layered or multilayered PCBs. They are designed for high performance and reliability. 
They commonly found in advanced circuit boards in networking equipment, telephones, mobile phones, computers and other consumer electronics.


Board-to-board (BTB) connectors are used to connect printed circuit boards (PCB), electronic components that contain a conductive pattern printed on the surface of the insulating base in an accurate and repeatable manner. Each terminal on a BTB connector is connected to a PCB. A BTB connector includes housing and a specific number of terminals. The terminal is made from a conductive material (mostly copper alloy), and plated to improve conductivity and antirust. Terminals transmit the current/signal between PCBs connected by BTB; the housing is made of insulating material (mostly plastic).

The basic types of Board to Board Connector
Broadly speaking, Board To Board Connectors are manufactured in the following types:
Pin Header
Elevated Pin Header
Socket
Elevated Socket 
Shrouded Header
Box Header

The way mount Board to Board Connectors on a PCB
board to board connectors are available in through hole (TH) and Surface Mount (SMT) variants.
Locating pegs (also referred to as locating posts, alignment pins or board locks) are used to assist alignment of connectors to the PCB. Locating pegs are particularly useful when using surface mount components.

board to board connectors are available in the following pitches: 04mm/0.5mm/0.8mm/1.0mm/1.27mm/2.54mm/3.96mm/4.0mm
For experienced hardware designers choosing board to board connectors is second nature, for the uninitiated it can be daunting. We offer design support and will help guide you through the options available. If you need help with your board to board connector design, contact antenk. Where required antenk also offer non standard pitches.
