Enhancing Safety, Reliability, and Efficiency of Onboard Chargers with Integrated Electronic Assembly Solutions
The onboard charger (OBC) is a vital component of an electric vehicle (EV), enabling the safe and efficient conversion of AC power from charging stations to the DC power required to recharge the battery. Beyond power conversion, the OBC acts as a critical hub for communication and control, interfacing with the vehicle’s controller and the charging station. By monitoring and optimizing charging parameters like voltage and current, the OBC ensures the battery is protected from risks such as overcharging, overheating and other electrical faults, thereby contributing to the safety and longevity of the EV.
