Datasheet

All of the onboard electronic systems can be powered by the battery system. The ATX computer
power supply will provide regulated voltages (from 5V to 12V) and it will be also included an inverter
able to provide 600W 230V AC to any device requiring AC power supply (e.g. video projector) will also
be included. Figure 3 depicts the onboard power architecture. Several DC-DC converters will also be
used to provide the necessary regulated power for the lasers, cameras and other DC-DC powered
devices.
Table 1 shows the equipment that is connected to each battery and the nominal current and power
consumption.
In charging mode all the batteries will be put on charge and some of the devices will be powered by
the 18V from the charging station. The motor drivers and all the equipment powered by the inverter
will not be connected to the 18V of the power station.
