Abstract

A vehicle battery system and a method of controlling the same are provided. When voltage of the vehicle battery is different from an output voltage of a commercially available quick charger, two high-voltage batteries are connected in parallel during battery charging, and the two high-voltage batteries are connected in series during vehicle driving. Accordingly, a compatibility problem is resolved, thereby allowing an inverter, an electric motor, and a connector to have increased efficiency and to maximize a reduction in size, weight, and material cost thereof.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention generally relates to a vehicle battery system and a control method thereof, and more particularly to a vehicle battery system and a control method thereof, wherein when the voltage of the vehicle battery is different from the output voltage of a commercial fast charger, two The high voltage battery is connected in parallel during battery charging, and the two high voltage batteries are connected in series during vehicle driving. Accordingly, compatibility issues can be resolved, thereby enabling efficiency improvements in inverters, motors, connectors, and maximizing reductions in size, weight, and material costs. Background technique [0002] In general, eco-friendly vehicles such as hybrid vehicles, electric vehicles, etc. require a high-voltage battery capable of storing electrical energy, an electric motor as a power source, and an inverter for operating the electric motor. In recent years, various efforts have been made to i...
