Function

DJI Intelligent Flight Battery for Mavic is a 3830mAh, 11.4V LiPo-3s battery, supporting up to 27 minutes of flight time. The battery also has built-in sensors and bright LEDs that let you know the status and remaining power. It contains automatic discharge feature to avoid swelling (fully charged LiPo cells release hydrogen), and Permanent Failure feature which disables the battery in case of damage or unexpected behavior of cells.

The battery management system chip (TI BQ30Z55) is queried for data by a small micro-controller (TI MSP430) through a Smart Battery System protocol. That micro-controller sends updates to the FC in regard to current battery status, through UART interface.

The SBS protocol defines battery-related commands to be transferred over SMBus, which in turn is devised from I2C.

Variants

There are multiple versions of the board.
