I received this board from ADI to create a video on it to eventually promote their product. What is that you will like to see on the video?
This is LT7170-1-AZ Eval board that acts as a buck regulator to deliver low voltage (1 V) high current (upto 20 A), useful for FPGA applications.

Most EV teardown content focuses on the cells. This one goes a level up and looks at how the battery pack actually interfaces with the rest of the vehicle.
This teardown shows all three connector systems on a Tesla Model S pack out of the car: the 400V high-current blade connectors that feed the drivetrain, the low-voltage CAN bus connectors that carry signals to the vehicle's computer, and the quick-disconnect cooling jackets that circulate glycol for thermal management.
If you are new to EV systems, which interface surprised you most: the 400V power connector, the CAN bus, or the glycol cooling?
