About

About OC-301 Onboard Charger

OC-301 is a 300-watt onboard charger installed inside a robot, drone or autonomous vehicle. Paired with an RC-100 receiver antenna and a compatible transmitter, it converts received wireless energy into controlled DC charging for lithium-ion, lithium-polymer, lithium-iron-phosphate, lead-acid, nickel-metal-hydride and nickel-cadmium batteries.

The charger supports battery voltages from 10 to 58.4 volts and currents up to 30 amperes, serving lower-voltage packs that require rapid charging. UAVCAN over CAN bus exposes charging and battery information to the host system. An auxiliary 24–50 V DC input allows the same programmable charger to manage plug-in or contact-based power, while the standard enclosure and mounting flanges support installation inside a mobile platform.
