Structure 

In the power electronics control unit there is the power inverter to actuate the electrical machine.

A DC/DC converter is integrated in the power electronics control unit for supplying the 12 V on-board electrical system. (Except model 253)

IMPORTANT DC/DC converter

A DC/DC converter is integrated in the power electronics control unit, which converts the high voltage direct voltage (primary voltage) into 12 V direct voltage (secondary voltage) and vice versa and transfers these between the high voltage on-board electrical system and the 12 V on-board electrical system.

IMPORTANT DC/DC converter control unit (N83/1)

The DC/DC converter control unit is installed in the vehicle as a separate component. The DC/DC converter control converts high-voltage direct voltage (primary voltage) into 12-V direct voltage (secondary voltage) and transfers these between the high voltage on-board electrical system and the 12-V on-board electrical system.

IMPORTANT Interlock circuit

The interlock circuit is used as contact protection to protect people against inadvertent contact with high-voltage components. The interlock is an anticipatory contact which opens a little before the high-voltage connection when opening a high-voltage connection. In this way timely discharging of the high voltage intermediate circuit is achieved by the control units of the high-voltage components.

In order to do this, a 12 V/88 Hz interlock signal is looped through all assembly parts of the high voltage on-board electrical system that can be removed or opened. To do this there is an electrical bridge in each removable high-voltage connection which interrupts the interlock circuit during removal of the high-voltage connection. The interlock circuit is also led switched in a series over the 12 V control units plug connection of the high-voltage components.

Tasks 

General 

The power electronics control unit actuates the electrical machine by request from the CDI control unit (N3/9) (with diesel engine) or the ME-SFI [ME] control unit (N3/10) (with gasoline engine) using a 3-phase AC voltage. It monitors the temperature and position of the electrical machine and provides diagnoses and forecasts regarding the available torque to the CDI control unit or the ME-SFI [ME] control unit.

Coding 

The power electronics control unit is flashable which means that the complete software in the control unit can be updated.

CAN network 

The power electronics control unit is connected via the HYBRID CAN (CAN L) to the CAN network of the vehicle and exchanges data with other control units.

Input and output signals 

Input factors and initial parameters for the following components are read in or output over direct lines by the power electronics control unit and are needed by the engine timing:

IMPORTANT The DC/DC converter is integrated in the power electronics control unit which produces a high voltage direct voltage and a 12 V direct voltage. The DC/DC converter enables energy exchange between the high voltage on-board electrical system and the 12 V on-board electrical system when it transforms high voltage direct voltage (primary voltage) into 12 V direct voltage (secondary voltage) and vice versa. As a result equalization of battery energies between the on-board electrical systems and a starting assistance function is made possible at an external voltage of 14 V.
