POWER CONTROL SYSTEM FOR DC-DC CONVERTER AND INVERTER PRE-CHARGING AND SHUTDOWN

A power control system for a propulsion system of a vehicle includes an energy storage system including a precharge circuit and one or more battery packs. A DC-DC converter is connected to the energy storage system and including a first capacitor, a first plurality of power switches and an inductor. A power inverter module is connected to the DC-DC converter and including a second capacitor and a second plurality of power switches. A controller is configured to pre-charge the first capacitor of the DC-DC converter and the second capacitor of the power inverter module and control operating modes of the DC-DC converter and the power inverter module.
