Function

DJI Intelligent Flight Battery for Mavic 2 is a 3850mAh, 15.4V LiPo-4s battery, supporting up to 31 minutes of flight time. The battery also has built-in sensors and LEDs which 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 BQ9003) communicates with FC directly, through Smart Battery System protocol, with some small modifications introduced by DJI.

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

Variants

There are multiple versions of the board.

Loading

Thick lines are the ones transferring high power. Feedback resistor for measuring current is inserted into negative line, while all the MOSFET switches are within positive line. The three Li-Po cells are connected in series, so that the voltage sums up.

The Battery Management System chip supports status LEDs and a button, which are placed on separate interface board. The output connector includes SMBus lines, which allow to exchange packets described in Smart Battery Specification, as well as some DJI-specific extensions.

The charge level, as well as errors and faults detected within the BMS, can be shown on four LEDs. Specifics of how the interface and the buttons work, as well as extensions to the SBS protocol, require implementation within the BMS firmware. Therefore, the firmware is not a stock TI version, but a modification of TIs firmware code by DJI engineers.
