EasyEVSE EV Charging Station Development Platform
The cloud-connected EasyEVSE EV charging station development platform provides hardware configuration instructions and example software to quickly set up a secure connection between a simulated electric vehicle supply equipment (EVSE) and a cloud-based application. Use the modular, scalable platform as the foundation to start building differentiated EVSE systems that support device-to-cloud and cloud-to-device communications, accurate energy billing and one-tap NFC authentication.
EasyEVSE EV Charging Signal Board
The EVSE-SIG-BRD Signal Board is an add-on for several EV charging development platforms. It hosts an LPC55S36 MCU for the SAE J1772 control pilot, a TJA1021BT LIN transceiver for SAE J3068 and a Lumissil CG5317 HomePlug Green PHY for ISO 15118 communications. It supports the proximity pilot, GFCI, relay drive, Ethernet and CAN PHYs, and is compatible with NXP development boards for i.MX 8, 9, RT1060, RT1064 or S32G-VNP-RDB3.
