Revision 1
Rationale:
The first version of the board had some odd functions with the mux switching but was fixed in a rather unsatisfactory method. It was also decided that the BMS is not really needed and that its functionalities can be transferred to this board. Revision 1 aims to manage these.
Tasks
- [ ] Fix the MUX switching
- [ ] Read up on BMS circuitry
- [ ] Figure out how to implement the BMS circuitry
- [ ] Create and test the BMS circuitry on breadboard
- [ ] Create a new schematic for the BMS and have that reviewed
- [ ] Layout new schematic and have that reviewed
- [ ] Fabricate and Validate
Status:
Validation for the MUX and E-Fuse is almost finished.

Description
Make a board that has the following:
- Power mux that can choose an input from either the BMS or GSE
- If you want to be fancy, tie the control pin of the mux to the GSE input, so when GSE power is applied, it automatically switches to GSE power
- efuse to protect from overcurrent and shorts
- Current/power monitor
