Mar 1, 2025March 2025 (Rivanna3) focused on delivering a robust Power System Precharge and Battery Management Control to improve safety, reliability, and automation of the power subsystem. Key work includes comprehensive precharge logic with charging/discharging enable sequences, fault handling, and enhanced sequencing. Introduced new pin assignments for voltage monitoring and control signals, and implemented a multithreaded framework to manage precharge and discharge operations with fault detection. Refactored code to add dedicated battery precharge and discharge functions and added header/source files to centralize precharge/discharge operations on the power board. These changes reduce startup risk, minimize manual intervention, and establish a scalable foundation for power management across hardware revisions.

Feb 1, 2025February 2025 monthly summary for Rivanna3 focused on Wheelboard hardware integration and robust initialization. Delivered Wheelboard target support with clock configuration and pin mapping, introducing system_clock.c and the TARGET_WHEEL_BOARD macro to ensure deterministic hardware initialization and correct pin assignments. Implemented a focused fix to pindef.h for Wheelboard (commit b676c21264d16ff694eea0656f6675447dcda024) to resolve pin-definition inconsistencies. These changes improve hardware reliability, portability across targets, and maintainability of the Rivanna3 driver stack. Business value includes reduced hardware init errors, faster onboarding of new targets, and more predictable operation across wheelboard deployments. Technologies used include C, embedded systems practices, macro-driven target configuration, and system clock/pin management.
