SAE J1772:2010 Compatible Active Vehicle Side Control Board Module

This little module AVC1 came together in a few weeks.  It improves the J1772 communications and power control.

It is intended for conversion vehicles to improve the safety and compatibility with public J1772 charging stations.

Units like our adapters take advantage of the differing pin lengths to insure ground mates first and breaks last.  The pin lengths also insure the power pins are mated before the pilot and the pilot  ends before the power pins separate.

This module monitors the  latch switch in the J1772 system and removes the pilot signal when your thumb is in the  connector latch further insuring power is off long before the connector separates.

There are 8 connections and the module is powered by the vehicles 12 volt system, current draw is always under 20ma.

Relay NO - Normally Open
Relay C - Common
Relay NC - Normally Closed
+12 power from the vehicle
CH chassis ground (and AC power ground)
GND green wire from J1772 Inlet Connector
PROX prox wire from J1772 Inlet Connector
PILOT pilot wire from J1772 Inlet Connector

The SPDT relay has a set of contacts for your use.

Soft start or stop of charging or inhibiting motion would be typical uses

A led shows when the circuit is latched.



The new version is AVC2.

It is the same unit packaged in a box with mounting ears and better terminal marking.
THe Led is covered up but it will be comming back soon.
The boards are tested and ready to go. The AVC1 price is $37.00 on eBay, shipping is included.  THe AVC2 is price $42.00.  Often we have a package with a vehicle inlet availible.
