BMS1802
18S BMS SlaveThe BMS1802 is a fully digital daisy-chain slave engineered for 5S to 18S lithium battery packs in energy storage and mobility systems. It measures every cell to 0.1 mV resolution and balances passively at up to 1000 mA, dissipating as much as 8 W per cell to align large packs quickly. Two RJ45 ports carry 1.5 kV isolated daisy-chain communication over standard CAT-5 cable, and the module is self-powered from the cells it monitors, so it integrates as a plug-and-play slave with no hardware or software configuration.



Overview
The BMS1802 is a high-current slave module built for distributed 5S to 18S battery systems. It measures every cell with 0.1 mV resolution and balances passively at up to 1000 mA per cell, clearing imbalance fast across large packs. Two RJ45 ports carry 1.5 kV isolated daisy-chain communication over standard CAT-5 cable, so modules stack reliably under a master. Self-powered from the cells it monitors and waking on master communication, it works out of the box with no configuration.
Highlighted Features
- 01
Flexible Cell Support
Monitors and protects from 5 to 18 cells, depending on cell chemistry.
- 02
Flexible Temperature Support
Up to 5 temperature sensors for comprehensive monitoring.
- 03
Automatic Sleep or Run Mode
Device runs in full power mode when powered up while communicating with master. If master stops communication, slave devices goes to deep sleep mode for minumum power consumption after 3 seconds. Any communication from master will wake the device up immediately.
- 04
Power Supply
Board is self-powered from the cells it monitors.
- 05
Up to 1A Balancing Current per Cell
Capable of 1A per cell balancing current. Proper cooling need to be considered at system level.
- 06
Easy Daisy-Chain Integration
Easy to use, plug-and-play integration with standard CAT-5 cable via RJ45 ports.
