Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of this application.
[0018] In order to make the objectives, technical solutions and advantages of this application clearer, the implementation methods of this application will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0019] On the first aspect, the embodiment of the present application provides a power domain controller system, which reduces the number of physical controllers and the complexity of wiring harnesses through multi-module integration, significantly reduces system development and maintenance costs, and is convenient for platform expansion. It has rich high-voltage distribution circuit interfaces and can be selected according to different vehicle configurations.

After integration, the internal modules can interact directly, reducing dependence on external communications, improving control real-time performance and optimizing network resource usage.
[0020] In one embodiment, referring to Figure 1 , Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of the power domain controller system structure of this application. Figure 1 As shown, the power domain controller system includes a domain control board, power modules, and a high-voltage power distribution unit. The domain control board includes a vehicle controller (VCU), a thermal management controller (TMC), a battery management system (BMS), a shift controller, and a power distribution control unit (PDC). The TMC is electrically connected to the PDC. The power module includes a slow charger, a DC-DC converter (DC-DC converter), and a relay. The slow charger is electrically connected to the BMS, and the DC-DC converter is electrically connected to the shift controller. The high-voltage power distribution unit includes a copper bus, relays, and fuses.
[0021] Specifically, the power domain controller system of this application includes a power domain housing, a domain control board, a power module, and a high-voltage power distribution unit located within the power domain housing. The domain control board includes five modules: a vehicle controller, a thermal management controller, a battery management system, a shift controller, and a power distribution control unit. The power module includes a slow charger, a DC-DC converter, and relays. The high-voltage power distribution unit includes copper busbars, relays, and fuses.
[0022] Furthermore, in this application, the power domain controller system is based on the main control chip layer, power execution layer, signal interface layer, and communication management layer. Through hardware integration and software decoupling design, and based on the collaborative mechanism of centralized computing and distributed power execution of the domain control chip, it realizes the functional integration of the vehicle controller, thermal management controller, slow charging charger, DCDC converter, battery management system, distribution control unit, and shift controller.
[0023] See Figure 2As shown, the power domain controller system utilizes a four-layer modular architecture: the main control chip layer, the power execution layer, the signal interface layer, and the communication management layer. Through hardware integration and software decoupling, it integrates the functions of the vehicle control unit (VCU), thermal management controller (TMS), onboard charger (OBC), DC-DC converter, battery management system (BMS), power distribution control unit (PDU), and shift controller (TCU). By synergizing centralized computing within the domain controller chip and distributed power execution, the power domain controller system significantly reduces the wiring complexity and communication latency of traditional distributed architectures, while also supporting compatibility with both 400V and 800V dual-voltage platforms.
[0024] In this application, for the design of the main control chip layer, the domain control chip adopts a multi-core processor, and realizes the parallel operation and resource isolation of the vehicle controller, thermal management controller, battery management system, power distribution control unit, and shift controller through virtualization partitioning technology.
[0025] The vehicle controller runs on an ARM (a microprocessor) core and is used to implement vehicle drive mode switching, torque distribution, energy recovery strategy and fault diagnosis. The vehicle controller also integrates a pre-charge control algorithm to support safe activation of the high-voltage circuit.
[0026] The thermal management controller, powered by a DSP (Digital Signal Processing) core, independently collects real-time battery module temperature, motor coolant temperature, and ambient temperature. This allows for dynamic coordination of the heat pump air conditioner, electronic water pump, and PTC (Positive Temperature Coefficient) heater, supporting a wide temperature range. Specifically, the thermal management controller, powered by a DSP core, independently collects real-time battery module temperature (e.g., NTC and PTC sensors), motor coolant temperature, and ambient temperature. This allows for dynamic coordination of the heat pump air conditioner, electronic water pump, and PTC heater, supporting a wide temperature range of -40°C to 85°C.
[0027] The battery management system is equipped with a battery monitoring chip for voltage sampling, temperature collection and passive balancing control. It estimates SOC (battery state of charge) and SOH (battery state of allowable) through the Kalman filter algorithm, and shares data with the distribution control unit to optimize the charging strategy.
[0028] The power distribution control unit manages the high-voltage power distribution circuit, insulation monitoring, and slow-charge communication protocols, and integrates a pre-charge resistor control circuit. Specifically, the power distribution control unit manages the high-voltage power distribution circuit (contactor drive logic), insulation monitoring, and slow-charge communication protocols, and integrates a pre-charge resistor control circuit, supporting 10ms-level pre-charge completion. Data is shared between modules via an on-chip crossbar bus, and dual-redundant watchdog circuits and ECC memory checksums ensure functional safety.
[0029] The shift controller is used to control the brushless DC motor and solenoid valve, detect vehicle speed, throttle opening, motor speed, and control gear switching.
[0030] In this application, for the design of the power execution layer, a two-in-one module of a slow charging charger and a DCDC converter is adopted to achieve hardware integration and software collaboration, and the vehicle's power domain distribution unit (PDCU for short) has a built-in high-voltage contactor drive circuit and fuse status monitoring, which is used to connect to the two-in-one module of the slow charging charger and the DCDC converter through an isolated internal CAN (Controller Area Network) bus, thereby transmitting charging status, fault codes and power request instructions, and supporting hardware CRC (Cyclic Redundancy Check) verification and automatic retransmission mechanism.
[0031] Specifically, the hardware integration uses multi-layer PCB (Printed Circuit Board) stacking technology to integrate the slow-charging charger and DCDC converter into the same housing. The power topology adopts a PFC+LLC resonant circuit and is paired with a digital isolation driver. Specifically, for hardware integration, multi-layer PCB stacking technology is used to integrate the 6.6 / 11kW slow-charging charger (supporting single-phase / three-phase input) and the 2.5kW DCDC converter into the same housing. The power topology adopts a PFC+LLC resonant circuit and is paired with a digital isolation driver.
[0032] Specifically, software collaboration implements time-sharing multiplexing control of the slow-charging charger and DCDC converter based on FPGA. In charging mode, resources are allocated to the slow-charging charger first, and in driving mode, the DCDC converter takes the lead. It also supports bidirectional energy flow of V2L (Vehicle to Load) and V2G (Vehicle-to-Grid), and interacts with the power distribution unit in the power domain through the CAN FD (Controller Area Network with Flexible Data-Rate) protocol to monitor charging requirements.
[0033] In this application, the design of the signal interface layer includes an input signal processing unit and an output signal driving unit; the input signal processing unit includes low-voltage input, digital sampling, analog sampling, and PWM (Pulse width modulation) acquisition; the output signal driving unit includes a power driving module, digital output, air conditioning and heating control, analog output, and PWM output.
[0034] The low-voltage input supports a wide voltage input range of 9~16V and integrates TVS (Transient Voltage Suppressor) surge protection, reverse polarity protection and soft-start circuits. Digital sampling provides 16 digital input channels, supports LIN (Local Interconnect Network) and CAN signal analysis, and has a built-in Schmitt trigger for jitter elimination. Analog sampling uses a 12-bit high-precision ADC (analog-to-digital converter) with a multiplexer switching 24 analog inputs (battery voltage, temperature, pressure, etc.), integrated EMI (Electromagnetic Interference) filtering and overvoltage protection. PWM acquisition uses 4 dedicated PWM input interfaces that support dual-mode analysis of duty cycle and frequency.
[0035] The power driver module implements short-circuit protection, over-temperature protection, and current sampling feedback. The digital output is a high-side driver (driving loads such as relays and solenoid valves) and supports open-circuit and short-circuit diagnostics. The air conditioning heater controls the PTC heater and compressor via a dedicated PWM output channel. The analog outputs provide four 0-5V adjustable voltage outputs for adjusting proportional valves and damper motors. Specifically, the PWM outputs are used to drive water pumps and fans. Specifically, the PWM outputs are used to drive speed-controlled devices such as water pumps and fans.
[0036] In this application, the design of the communication management layer includes internal communication, external communication, and security protection. Internal communication between the domain control chip and the power execution layer devices is done via a dual-channel CAN FD bus (redundant design), transmitting control commands and status data. This is especially true for critical control commands and status data, with a bus load factor of ≤30%.
[0037] External communication involves interacting with the chassis and cockpit domains through the vehicle's CAN FD gateway, supporting OTA (Over-the-Air Technology) upgrades and big data diagnosis.
[0038] Safety protection requires meeting functional safety standards and fault response time requirements (fault response time ≤ 10ms), and key signals use differential transmission and shielded wiring harness design.

The software of the power domain controller system includes application layer software and basic software. The application layer software is divided into two parts: one is the VCU, TCU, BMS, TMS, and PDU on the domain control board, and the other is the OBC and DCDC converter. The basic software is divided into RTE (Runtime Environment) middleware and low-level software. The low-level software includes drivers, protocol stacks, BootLoader, etc.
[0040] It should be noted that, see Figure 4 As shown, the high-voltage principle of the power domain controller system of this application includes a DCDC converter, a slow-charging charger, a battery input circuit, a DCDC output circuit, a slow-charging port / discharging circuit, a fast-charging circuit, a compressor circuit, a rear compressor circuit, a WPTC circuit, a top-mounted circuit, a front-drive motor circuit, an APTC circuit, and a rear-drive motor circuit.
