Battery Level Monitor Module MX1BM1 – Product Datasheet

Overview

The MX1BM1 – Battery Level Monitor Module is a compact, low-power board designed to measure battery voltage. It safely scales battery voltages (3.0V to 5.2V) for ADC input on MCUs like ESP32, STM32, Arduino, etc. It features an enable-controlled voltage divider with MOSFET gating for low standby current, ideal for deep-sleep applications.

Function

1

VBAT

Connect to battery or input voltage (max 5.2V)

Enable Logic

  • Logic HIGH (≥2.5V): Enables the voltage divider and outputs the scaled voltage
  • Logic LOW (0V): Turns off the divider to reduce standby current
  • Compatible with 3.3V microcontrollers (ESP32, STM32, etc.)

This is a classic resistive voltage divider. The formula for output voltage:

Example Application

Example Arduino Code

#define EN_PIN 5

#define CL_PIN A0

void setup() {

 pinMode(EN_PIN, OUTPUT);

 digitalWrite(EN_PIN, LOW);

 Serial.begin(9600);}

void loop() {

 digitalWrite(EN_PIN, HIGH);   // Enable module

 delay(5);                     // Wait for stable output

 int raw = analogRead(CL_PIN); // Read ADC value

 digitalWrite(EN_PIN, LOW);    // Disable module

  // Voltage divider: R1 = 100k, R2 = 10k

  // Divider ratio: CL = VBAT * (10 / 110) = VBAT * 0.0909

  // So, VBAT = CL / 0.0909

 float v_adc = raw * (3.3 / 4095.0);     // ADC (assuming 12-bit ADC and 3.3V ref)

 float battery_voltage = v_adc / 0.0909; // Reconstruct battery voltage

 Serial.print("Battery Voltage: ");

 Serial.print(battery_voltage, 2);       // 2 decimal places

 Serial.println(" V");

 delay(1000);}

This code enables the Battery Level Monitor Module by setting the EN pin HIGH, allowing the voltage divider to output the scaled battery voltage to the CL pin. The microcontroller then reads this voltage using its ADC and calculates the actual battery voltage using the known divider ratio (R1 = 100k, R2 = 10k). After reading, the module is disabled to save power. The measured battery voltage is printed to the Serial Monitor once every second.
