A closer look at capacitor precharge and inrush current control


The vast majority of power converters used in the EV space—from battery chargers to traction inverters—are classified as voltage-fed, meaning they expect to be supplied from a source whose voltage varies little with changes in current draw (i.e. has a low impedance), and the best way to ensure this condition is with a capacitor across… Read more…
