openBMS – Centralized BMS Project

I ran across this project today, it is an open sourced centralized BMS project;
openBMS Project

It utilizes a Linear Technology LTC6802-2 Battery Monitor IC that measures 12 cells in series, the PCB has a stackable architecture for expansion.

I picked up a copy of Davide Andrea’s book “ Battery Management Systems for large Lithium-Ion Battery Packs “ In his BMS IC comparison, the Linear Technology LTC6802-1 & 2 is recommended for large battery packs.
