Power electronics units, such as onboard chargers (OBC), and auxiliary power modules (APM) are the key units of charging systems in electric vehicles (EVs). Tremendous efforts are put into the optimization of these units for higher efficiency, higher power density, and lower cost. In addition to optimizing each single unit separately, multi-functional integrated solutions provide...
