Mk9 is a VESC capable of handling up to 200VDC, succeeding previous Mk5, Mk6 , Mk7 & Mk8

Warning: Using higher voltage brings new safety hazards. No data is yet available, so use at your own risk!!!

What's new:

• Now up to 40S capable

• More powerful aux. 12V rail

• Better accuracy for voltage readings 

• Single UART port instead of two, new JST GH 3 pin  for 5V lighting

• New aluminum case with better accessibility and ergonomics (still backward compatible with MK8 mounting pattern)

• Copper aluminum case option for up to 40% increased thermal performance

• Roll-to-start feature

• N.O. button instead of N.C. (Still possible to use an N,C. button by removing a jumper)

Description:

• Single motor controller equipped with 6 x TOLT MOSFET

• Low side shunt current sensor

• Up to 200V tolerant ~40S capable 

• 75A Battery, 150A Phase (XT60 battery connector limited to ~60A continuous, AWG 12 wires  to ~80A continuous,) Note that many others ESC have exaggerated specs! 150A is for guidance only

• Optional Bluetooth module or MK9-SHIELD (mounted separate onto the removable cover)

• Accelerometer IMU (LSM6DS3)

• Automatic & manual shutdown (requires external N.C. momentary button, hibernation current ~30uA, long press to turn ON & OFF)

• DC Input 12 Gauge silicon wire to XT60  Male

• Phase Output 12 Gauge silicon wire to 4mm Female Bullet connectors

• ADC1 and ADC2 internally equipped with 10k Ohm pulldown resistors

• Aux. power outputs:

  • 12V : 1A

  • 3.3V : 2A 

  • 5V : 2A

Enclosure dimensions: 58mm x 68mm x 18mm

Connectivity: JST-GH-1.25mm (CAN, SWD,  UART, HALL, ADC,  SERVO, 12V), USB-C
