Charger converter: High Voltage Onboard Charger and DC/DC Converter Combo
Last update: 05 Sep. 2023Combined system solution of an Onboard Charger and DC/DC converter
The high voltage combo OBC DC/DC combines the functionality of an Onboard Charger (OBC) with that of a DC/DC converter (DC/DC). The OBC is the interface between the car and the public grid, it converts the energy from the grid network AC (Alternative Current) source to the DC (Direct Current) voltage of the car high voltage battery in respect with the public grid and regulations.
The DC/DC converter stage manages the energy flow between the high voltage network (HV – typically between 300V and 900V) and the low voltage network (e.g. lights, infotainment, power steering, 12V battery, etc…)
