Getting started

1 Getting started

1.1 Hardware elements of the Demo Kit

Note: All different versions of the evaluation boards are compatible to each other and can be used in the same
daisy chain.
The following hardware is necessary to start with the TLE9012AQU Demo Kit:
TLE9012AQU Demo Board
at least 1x iso UART cable
1x resistor ladder (not necessary in evaluation board V5)
TLE9015QU Transceiver Board
TM
AURIX
12 V power supply
•USB cable
TC265 TFT Application Kit
Power supply for resistor ladder (5 V - 60 V)
optional: 12 Li-Ion cells (instead of resistor ladder)
Figure 2 Demo Kit BMS

1.2 Hardware connection

The hardware is connected as follow:
The TLE9015QU transceiver board is plugged onto the AURIX

User Manual Demo Kit TLE9012AQU & TLE9015QU
Getting started
Resistor ladder (cable with orange connector) is connected to the TLE9012AQU demo board (orange connector) as shown in Figure 3 on the left side. In V5 of the evaluation kit, the resistor ladder is included on the PCB and connected through a solder bump.
Supply the resistor ladder with a voltage between 5 V - 60 V
Supply the AURIX
Use the iso UART cable (blue/white) cable to connect the transceiver board with the sensing board as shown in Figure 3
Note: The sensing IC board can be connected either to cells or to a power supply with provided resistor ladder
(orange connector with red/black cable). If a resistance divider is used, an open load error is detected and the corresponding bit in the diagnostsis register (GEN_DIAG) is set (because of that also cell balancing ca nnot b e activ ated) . This is be cause the in terna l re sista nce of Li- Ion ce lls is muc h sm aller than t hat of the resistors on the resistor divider. All other functions such as cell voltage measurement, temperature etc. are possible without restriction.

1.3 13 wire setup

The BMS sensing board can be used in a 13 wire or 15 wire setup (see details in App Note HW). For a 13 wire setup, solder R13 and R29 with a 0 Ω resistor (0603 package) as descibed in Figure 4.

1.4 Flashing the AURIXTM hardware kit

The following steps are required to setup the frameword for the Demo Kit.

1.4.1 DAS tool

The DAS tool is a USB driver software provided by Infineon. It is required to connect the AURIXTM hardware kit to the PC environment.
The latest version v7.1.8 can be found here:
Link to DAS tool
To start the installation, administrator privileges are requirement and the terms of use need to be accepted.
After successful installation of DAS, the PC should be able to detect the AURIX in the device manager.

1.4.2 Memtool

The Memtool is a software from Infineon for on-chip flash programming.
The latest version v4.8.1 can be found here:
Link to Memtool
Click “Accept & Open” to download the software and run the installation afterwards.
