If their total output power exceeds the total input power of the OBC, the OBC input current will exceed the limit of the charging gun, resulting in an overcurrent fault. When the on-board controller and the OBC controller use serial communication to transmit the OBC's resonant cavity current value, due to data transmission delays, when the load connected to the output of the DC / DC converter suddenly increases, the OBC controller cannot adjust the OBC output power in time.

Figure 2 As shown, the OBC and DC / DC integrated charger includes an OBC controller 210 , an OBC 220 , an onboard controller 230 , and a DC / DC converter 240 .
[0022] In a feasible embodiment, a first output end of the DC / DC converter 240 is connected to an input end of the onboard controller 230, a second output end of the DC / DC converter 240 is connected to a low-voltage output end, a first output end of the onboard controller 230 is connected to a first input end of the OBC controller 210, a second output end of the onboard controller 230 is connected to a second input end of the OBC controller 210, a third output end of the onboard controller 230 is connected to a first input end of the DC / DC converter 240, an output end of the OBC controller 210 is connected to a first input end of the OBC 220, a second input end of the OBC 220 is connected to an external power supply, a first output end of the OBC 220 is connected to a high-voltage electrical device, a second input end of the DC / DC converter 240, and a third input end of the OBC controller 210, and a second output end of the OBC 220 is connected to a fourth input end of the OBC controller 210;

The on-board controller 230 is responsible for communicating and interacting with the entire vehicle and directly controlling the output power of the DC / DC converter 240, and transmitting the output power of OBC220 to the OBC controller 210 according to the needs of the entire vehicle.

OBC220 is a charger fixedly installed on the electric vehicle, which has the ability to automatically fully charge the power battery of the electric vehicle.

[0025] In an embodiment of the present application, when the load at the low-voltage output end suddenly increases, the on-board controller 230 converts the current of the DC / DC converter 240 into a first PWM signal and sends it to the OBC controller 210. The OBC controller 210 generates a second PWM signal based on the first PWM signal and other currents, and outputs the second PWM signal to OBC220. OBC220 adjusts the output current according to the second PWM signal. Since the transmission speed of the PWM signal is much faster than serial communication, when the load at the low-voltage output end connected to the DC / DC output end suddenly increases, OBC220 can adjust the resonant cavity current of OBC220 in time, thereby avoiding the input current of OBC220 exceeding the charging gun limit and causing an overcurrent fault.

[0038] In a feasible embodiment, the first adder 212 is further configured to output a feedback to the third adder 216 so as to enable the second PI regulator 218 to quickly respond to the change of the input current to speed up the overall regulation speed.
[0039] In a feasible embodiment, OBC220 includes a power factor corrector (PFC) 221, a resonant circuit LLC222 and a rectifier and filter module 223, wherein the output end of PFC221 is connected to the input end of LLC222, the output end of LLC222 is connected to the input end of the rectifier and filter module 223, and the current output by the output end of LLC222 is the resonant cavity current of OBC220.
[0040] It can be understood that PFC221 is used to improve the power factor of electrical equipment, LLC222 is used as an absorption circuit to filter out interference signals, etc., the rectifier and filter module 223 is used to rectify and filter the current, the first input end of OBC220 can be understood as the input end of LLC222, the second input end of OBC220 can be understood as the input end of PFC221, and the output end of LLC222 can be understood as connected to the first sampling circuit 217.

When the load at the low-voltage output end suddenly increases, OBC220 can be controlled in a timely and accurate manner to avoid the input current of OBC220 exceeding the limit of the charging gun and causing an overcurrent fault.
[0042] See also Figure 4 , Figure 4 This is a flow chart of a control method for an OBC and DC / DC integrated charger provided in an embodiment of the present application. The method is applied to an OBC and DC / DC integrated charger. The OBC and DC / DC integrated charger includes an OBC, an OBC controller, an on-board controller, and a DC / DC converter. The method includes:
[0043] Step S41: When the load at the low-voltage output end suddenly increases, the on-board controller collects the output current of the DC / DC converter, converts the output current of the DC / DC converter into a first PWM signal, and transmits it to the OBC controller through the second output end. The on-board controller also generates a first reference current and outputs it to the OBC controller through the first output end. The greater the output current of the DC / DC converter, the greater the duty cycle of the first PWM signal.
[0044] Compared to serial communication, PWM signal transmission enables faster transmission speeds, allowing the OBC controller to more quickly react to changes in the DC / DC converter's output current. The onboard charger, used to communicate with the vehicle, can also generate a reference current based on the vehicle's needs. This reference current serves as the reference value for the OBC's resonant cavity current and is transmitted to the OBC controller, which then uses this reference current to control the OBC's resonant cavity current.
[0045] Step S42: The OBC controller obtains a second PWM signal according to the first reference current, the first PWM signal, the OBC resonant cavity current output from the second output terminal of the OBC, and the input current of the high-voltage electrical equipment until a preset condition is met, and outputs the second PWM signal to the OBC.
[0046] The preset condition is that the first reference current value is equal to the resonant cavity current value of the OBC.
[0047] In a feasible embodiment, the OBC controller includes a first adder, a second adder, a third adder, a first sampling circuit, a second sampling circuit, a first PI regulator, a second PI regulator, a PWM capture circuit, and a PWM generation circuit. When the load at the low-voltage output end suddenly increases, the OBC controller obtains a second PWM signal based on the first reference current, the first PWM signal, the resonant cavity current of the OBC outputted from the second output end of the OBC, and the input current of the high-voltage electrical equipment until a preset condition is met, and outputs the second PWM signal to the OBC, including:
[0048] The PWM capture circuit converts the first PWM signal into a first input current and outputs the first input current to the first adder; the first adder calculates a second reference current based on the first reference current and the first input current, and outputs the second reference current to the second adder; the second sampling circuit collects the input current of the high-voltage electrical equipment and outputs the input current of the high-voltage electrical equipment to the second adder; the first sampling circuit collects the resonant cavity current of the OBC and outputs the resonant cavity current of the OBC to the third adder; the second adder calculates a third reference current based on the second reference current and the input current of the high-voltage electrical equipment, and outputs the third reference current to the first PI regulator; the first PI regulator obtains a first control current based on the third reference current and outputs the first control current to the third adder; the third adder calculates a fourth reference current based on the first control current, the resonant cavity current of the OBC and the second reference current, and outputs the fourth reference current to the second PI regulator; the second PI regulator obtains a first modulation wave based on the fourth reference current, and outputs the first modulation wave to the PWM generation circuit; the PWM generation circuit obtains a second PWM signal based on the first modulation wave, and outputs the second PWM signal to the OBC.
[0049] Among them, when the load at the low-voltage output end suddenly increases, the output current of the DC / DC converter increases, the second reference current output by the first adder decreases, the third reference current output by the second adder decreases, the first control current output by the first PI regulator decreases, and the current value output by the third adder decreases. Finally, the second PWM signal output by the OBC controller adjusts the resonant cavity current of the OBC, so that the resonant cavity current of the OBC decreases; as the resonant cavity current of the OBC decreases, the input current of the high-voltage electrical equipment will also decrease. At this time, the output value of the second adder increases, the first control current output by the first PI regulator increases, and the current value output by the third adder increases. Finally, the second PWM signal output by the OBC controller adjusts the resonant cavity current of the OBC, so that the resonant cavity current of the OBC increases, and continues until the resonant cavity current of the OBC is equal to the reference value of the resonant cavity current of the OBC, that is, the first reference current value.
[0050] In an embodiment of the present application, when the load at the low-voltage output suddenly increases, the OBC controller controls the OBC's resonant cavity current based on the increase in the DC / DC converter's output current and the decrease in the high-voltage electrical equipment's input current until the OBC's resonant cavity current equals a reference value for the OBC's resonant cavity current. This automatically controls the OBC's resonant cavity current, preventing the sum of the output power of the high-voltage electrical equipment and the DC / DC converter at the OBC's output from exceeding the OBC's total input power.
[0051] Step S43: The OBC adjusts the resonant cavity current according to the second PWM signal, and outputs the adjusted current to the high-voltage electrical equipment and the DC / DC converter through the first output terminal. The current output from the first output terminal of the OBC is the current obtained after the resonant cavity current of the OBC is rectified and filtered.
[0052] Among them, because the OBC can dynamically adjust the charging current parameters according to the control instruction, the OBC can adjust its charging current parameters through the second PWM signal and thus adjust the resonant cavity current of the OBC.
[0053] Step S44: The DC / DC converter converts the current input by the OBC and outputs it to the low-voltage output terminal.
[0054] Among them, the on-board controller is responsible for communicating and interacting with the entire vehicle and directly controlling the output current of the DC / DC. The on-board controller will output a controller signal to control the DC / DC converter to convert the current output by the OBC to the DC / DC converter and output it to the low-voltage output end.
[0055] In a feasible embodiment, the first adder further outputs a feedback to the third adder to enable the second PI regulator to respond to the change of the input current in advance, thereby accelerating the overall regulation speed.
[0056] It can be seen that in the embodiment of the present application, when the load at the low-voltage output end suddenly increases, the on-board controller collects the output current of the DC / DC converter, converts the output current of the DC / DC converter into a first PWM signal, and transmits it to the OBC controller through the second output end. It also generates a first reference current and outputs it to the OBC controller through the first output end, wherein the greater the output current of the DC / DC converter, the greater the duty cycle of the first PWM signal; the OBC controller obtains a second PWM signal based on the first reference current, the first PWM signal, the resonant cavity current of the OBC outputted from the second output end of the OBC, and the input current of the high-voltage electrical equipment until a preset condition is met, and outputs the second PWM signal to the OBC; the OBC adjusts the current inputted from the external power supply according to the second PWM signal, and outputs the adjusted current to the high-voltage electrical equipment and the DC / DC converter through the first output end, and the current outputted from the first output end of the OBC is the current obtained after rectification and filtering of the resonant cavity current of the OBC; the DC / DC converter converts the current inputted by the OBC and outputs it to the low-voltage output end. Using the above method, since the transmission speed of PWM signals is much faster than serial communication, and the on-board charger controls the OBC controller and the OBC controller controls the OBC by sending a PWM signal, when the load of the electrical equipment connected to the DC / DC output end suddenly increases, the OBC can adjust the OBC resonant cavity current in time to avoid the OBC input current exceeding the charging gun limit and causing overcurrent.
