CHARGING SYSTEM

A charging system according to the present disclosure includes an AC-DC converter, a DC-DC converter, and a control circuit. The AC-DC converter is connected between an input node and an intermediate node. The AC-DC converter is connectable to a power source via the input node. The DC-DC converter is connected between the intermediate node and an output node. The DC-DC converter is connectable to a battery via the output node. The control circuit is configured to control a voltage of the intermediate node so as to reduce a sum of a loss in the AC-DC converter and a loss in the DC-DC converter, in accordance with a first parameter, a second parameter, and a third parameter. The first parameter is related to input power of the AC-DC converter. The second parameter is related to output power of the DC-DC converter. The third parameter is related to an ambient temperature.
