High-voltage, positive rail active precharge reference design

TIDA-050082

Design files

Overview

This reference design utilizes a buck-converter topology to precharge large high-voltage (HV) DC- link capacitances in hybrid electric vehicles (HEV), electric vehicles (EV), and energy storage systems (ESS). This design expands upon and updates High-Voltage Solid-State Relay Active Precharge Reference Design.

Features
  • Charges 2mF capacitance from 0V to 800V within 400ms
  • 4.5AAVG, 10APK-PK charging current
  • 5kVRMS reinforced isolation
  • Integrated isolated bias supply for high-side rail and positive-rail MOSFET or IGBT gate drive
  • Integrated comparators for hysteretic current control
