VESC Hall Sensor Connection

Thanks. What is it responsible for then? Looks like a big one. Would it be that that’s making it under powered you think? You know where I could get one? Rs-components?

Cheers

I’m surprised it works without it, is c51 on there? They’re the same component. You can put 4.7/10/22uf 100V 2220 cap there. 22uf is best if you can get it or stack the others if that’s all you can get. Also if you any dead vescs you can take it off c37/c51 on there

Where would C51 be!? :confused:

I’ve already added C44 & C49 because they were missing :frowning:

It’s on the other side, above shunt

Not sure what ‘shunt’ is…

Ah! C51 was one of the ones I had to add in myself :confused:

It was a while ago, I’d forgotten what reference it had.

Well, I guess I’ll get a C37 and put it on there, can’t hurt can it?

Hurt, no, help, yes lol Add c14 too if you have it

lol. So is C37 the same as C51?

Yeah it’s the same part

OK cool. I’ll just order the same as I got last time then.

What’s this c14? Another one missing?

Yeah c14 tends be left off cheap vescs, it’s not required but helps. I may be mistaken but I think that was one the changes between 4.10 and 4.12, adding c14. It’s between the red and black wire

OK, I’ll get it and add it then. Cheers!

This has 4.12 stamped on the PCB. I wonder what happened to it? Maybe it was just someone’s test VESC? lol

Looks like somebody took 2 broken ones and made 1 working lol

Yeah you could be spot on there…

Which one out of these should I choose? I can’t find my last order :frowning:

What’s the difference between these two?

Not exactly sure, I think they use different materials. I haven’t seen the 2nd one used in any vescs

I’ll get the one you linked to. What about C14, is that the same component?

Standard is 2.2uf 16v upgraded is 4.7uf 16v smd0603 All the 2.2uf caps can be upgraded to 4.7uf if you feel like it
