Co-Design Approach of Converter Control for Battery Charging Electric Vehicle Applications

Abstract

The power electronics converter control and its applications with hardware and software co-design partitioned approach lead to create electronics system on a single chip. A hardware prototype of a power electronics converter designed with high frequency and high voltage switches is the complex task of an electronic engineer. The partitioning of hardware and software synthesis by using advanced single chip fabrication techonology and realtime simulator is presented in the article. The real time simulator OPAL-RT is used for the co-design model with the Simulink for pulse generation and control of the converter with the feedback signal in the simulation platform.
