Power Supply
The BR_XETK-S1.0 requires a permanent power supply. It is typically powered
directly from the car battery. The input voltage may vary between 4.3 V and 36 V. In
case of higher input voltages to the XETK, additional voltage protection is required.
The BR_XETK-S1.0 will also accept voltage dips down to 3 V, for a maximum dura-
tion of 15 ms (for additional details of low voltage operation, see ISO standard
16750).
From the input battery voltage, switch-mode power supplies provide all necessary
voltages on the BR_XETK-S1.0. The power supply of the ECU is not affected by the
BR_XETK-S1.0. An automatic switch ensures that the power supply of the BR_X-
ETK-S1.0 is automatically switched on and off when the XETK enters and leaves its
standby (sleep) mode.
The BR_XETK-S1.0 is supplied with power through the connector CON4.
