Electronic Speed Controller
MK8-PRO
MK8-PRO is a VESC capable of handling up to 150VDC with twice the current output of the actual Mk8
Description:
- Single motor controller equipped with 12 x TOLT MOSFET
Low side shunt current sensor
150V tolerant ~30S capable (32S with limited regen.)
150A Battery, 300A Phase (AWG 8 wires limited to ~150A continuous)
Optional Bluetooth module (mounted separate under the removable cover, using XLITE Bluetooth+CAN bus is also a preferable alternative and allow full system PIN locking)
Accelerometer IMU (BMI160)
Automatic & manual shutdown (requires external N.C. momentary button, hibernation current ~30uA, long press to turn ON & OFF)
Compact aluminum case (possibility to make it watertight)
DC Input 10 Gauge silicon wire to XT90 Male (use comments box for customized connector)
Phase Output 8 Gauge silicon wire to 8mm Female Bullet connectors (use comments box for customized connectors)
ADC1 and ADC2 internally equipped with 10k Ohm pulldown resistors
Aux. power outputs:
12V : 0.4A (~10V)
3.3V : 1A
5V : 0.75A
Enclosure dimensions: 58mm x 106mm x 21mm
Connectivity: JST-GH-1.25mm (CAN, SWD, 2 x UART, HALL, ADC, SERVO, 12V), USB-C
MK8-PRO with customized connector (AWG 12 cables, XT60 & 4mm bullets)
Four 4.1mm holes are available to interface with external devices ( CAN, power switch, sensors, HALL) Use preferably with 3.7mm diameter Julet connector (HiGo Mini-B for ebike)
For application that does not require a 30s cell count e.g.: 18S, 20S, 24S or 28S you can request an MK8 with lower voltage MOSFET that will improve thermals and increase the VESC current peaks capability, see table below:
Additionnal informations:
Power ON/OFF button: Latching type button is supported, change the setting in VESC-tool->app settings->general->shutdown mode->Always OFF
5 to 10 seconds are needed at startup for the VESC to respond to the button input
Momentary button must be removed before a firmware update otherwise, the VESC might become bricked.
