Transformerless SoC-based current control switching battery charger for e-vehicle: design and analysis

Abstract

Electric-based vehicles become a necessity in the future to dramatically reduce the effects of pollution. There are various devices involve in the operation of electric vehicles, one of which is a battery charger. This paper discusses the design steps, circuit and ripple performance analysis associated with building a battery charger system. The analysis shows the differences between RL and RC circuits in controlling the output voltage average and the ripples. It shows how RLC mixed circuit improve performance in both controlling the output voltage average and the ripple suppression.
