DC fast charging using closed-loop control of multi-functional inverter-based boost converter

A method for charging a battery pack via an offboard energy source uses an interleaved boost converter and closed-loop control. The energy source outputs a charging current via a DC charge port during a direct current fast-charging (DCFC) process. A controller detects a voltage disparity condition in which a voltage capability of the battery pack exceeds a voltage capability of the energy source. In response to this condition, a rise of the charging current over time is recorded as a current trajectory and an open-loop equivalent time constant is extracted from the current trajectory. A time constant of the PI control block is set substantially equal to the equivalent time constant. The PIM is controlled in closed-loop using proportional-integral control. The charging current is controlled in a continuous current conduction mode during the DCFC process.
