Component Datasheets

Manufacturer datasheets and manuals for the major components on the kart, kept with the docs so the reference is version-controlled and available offline. These are downloads — click to open the PDF.

What's here and what isn't

This page collects the human-readable datasheets and manuals that map to a documented part. 3D models / CAD (STEP, SLDPRT, STL) are not here — they live in the separate SMCSKart-CAD repo, which will grow to hold the full go-kart assembly. The authoritative board source remains the SMCSKart-Mainboard KiCad repo.

Traction & power

Component What it is Datasheet
FarDriver NS controller The traction ESC. See the FarDriver ESC settings page for the app parameter set. User Manual (PDF, 3.4 MB) · A4203-H spec (PDF, 0.4 MB)
SOTION FW07 motor The 72 V 15 kW traction motor driven by the ESC. Datasheet (PDF, 5.8 MB)
JK Smart BMS Battery management for the 24S pack; the planned source of live pack telemetry (see Telemetry). Instruction manual (PDF, 9.6 MB)
URB_LD-30WR3 Isolated DC-DC converter module on the mainboard (logic power). Datasheet (PDF, 2.5 MB)
IRLZ44N Logic-level N-MOSFET used for low-side switching on the mainboard. Datasheet (PDF, 0.5 MB)

Steering

Component What it is Datasheet
CTRE Talon SRX The steering motor controller, driven by servo PWM from the Steervo. User's Guide (PDF, 1.7 MB) · Outline drawing (PDF, 0.3 MB)

Mainboard signal path

Component What it is Datasheet
MCP4725 DAC 12-bit I²C DAC that synthesizes the analog throttle voltage for the ESC's TPS line. Datasheet (PDF, 1.5 MB)
MCP2562 CAN transceiver Physical-layer transceiver for the Teensy ⇄ Steervo CAN link. Datasheet (PDF, 0.8 MB)
MPU6050 IMU 6-axis IMU on the mainboard. A probe exists but it is not yet in live telemetry — see Hardware & Open Items. Datasheet (PDF, 1.6 MB)
Ethernet connector Board Ethernet jack. Spec (PDF, 0.6 MB)

GPS

Component What it is Datasheet
u-blox NEO-M9N The GPS module behind the Map tab. Datasheet (PDF, 0.7 MB)

More NEO-M9N documents are in the repo

The repo also holds the u-blox integration manual, hookup guide, and product summary under docs/reference/PDF/Mainboard/GPS/. They are not published to this site (redundant with the datasheet and large); browse them in the repository if needed. The u-blox8-M8 protocol spec in that folder covers the older M8 series, not our M9N.
