BMW 3: Low-voltage connections
In the low-voltage connector at the Electrical Machine Electronics the
following lines and signals are
combined:
- Terminal 30 from the hybrid power distribution box
- Terminal 30 from the front left power distribution box
- Terminal 30C (terminal 30 crash signal)
- Ground
- FlexRay bus system
- PT-CAN bus system
- K-CAN 5 bus system
- Input and output of the circuit of the high-voltage interlock loop (EME
control unit evaluates
the signal and initiates a shutdown of the high-voltage system in the event
of an interruption to
the circuit. Redundancy of battery management electronics (SME) )
- Actuation of the shutoff valve in the vehicle interior
- Activating the electrical vacuum pump
- Evaluation of the rotor position sensor at the electrical machine
- Evaluation of the temperature sensor at the electrical machine
- Intelligent battery sensor of auxiliary battery (LIN bus).
The Electrical Machine Electronics is connected to the 12 V vehicle
electrical system (terminals 30
and 31) via two separate low-voltage connections and lines with large
cross-sections. Via this
connection the DC/DC converter in the Electrical Machine Electronics provides
the entire 12 V vehicle
electrical system with energy. These two lines are connected with the Electrical
Machine Electronics
via a screw connection.
The following graphic summarizes the low-voltage connections of the
Electrical Machine Electronics
in the form of a simplified wiring diagram:
