MULTIFUNCTIONAL CHARGER AND AUXILIARY POWER MODULE COMBINATION USING INVERTER
DRIVE
June 25, 2026
An electric vehicle includes an electrical system. The electric system includes a high voltage power source, a low voltage power source, an inverter coupled to the high voltage power source, a motor coupled to the inverter, and a multi-port DC/DC converter. The motor is configured to couple to an AC grid. The multi-port DC/DC converter includes a transformer, a first AC/DC converter having a first DC-side configured to couple to the high voltage power source and a first AC-side coupled to the transformer, a second AC/DC converter having a second AC-side coupled to the transformer and a second DC-side configured to couple to the high voltage power source, a third AC/DC converter having a third AC-side coupled to the transformer and a third DC-side coupled to the low voltage power source, and a processor configured to control a configuration between the motor, the multi-port DC/DC converter and the AC grid.
