Level 1 AC/DC Onboard Charger
Each Electrical Vehicle has an Onboard charger :
• High volume addressable market
• The target power is between 1.5kW and 3.5kW
• AC input : 16A@140V/240V → 2.2kW/3.8kW(www.imsresearch.com)
• DC Output: 200 - 450V

Power Factor Correction: Working Principle
The goal of the PFC is to obtain a phase alignment between the input voltage and input current

CONTROLLER
• PFC Figure of Merit → PF = P/(VRMS x IRMS) = Watts/V.A.
• The switch is the mayor contributor of switching loss (20kHz<FS<150kHz)
• The diode works in hard switching mode (reversed current when turning OFF)

Benefit of interleaving:
• Input Ripple Current reduction
• Output Ripple Current reduction
• Better thermal management
• Core Magnetic size halved
