CONTROL APPARATUS FOR VEHICLE
First Claim
1. A control apparatus for a vehicle provided with an electrical system having a battery storing electric power supplied from an external power supply through an EVSE, said control apparatus comprising:
- a first control unit that receives an input of a connector signal indicating that said EVSE is connected to the vehicle when said EVSE is connected to the vehicle; and
a second control unit that has an operating frequency higher than an operating frequency of said first control unit and receives an input of said connector signal when said EVSE is connected to the vehicle, whereinsaid first control unit activates said second control unit when said connector signal is input, andsaid second control unitcontrols, in an activated state, said electrical system to charge said battery, andcontrols said electrical system to stop charging said battery when the input of said connector signal is stopped.

Abstract
In the case where a connector of a charging cable is connected to a charging connector provided on a hybrid vehicle, a connector signal CNCT indicating that the connector of the charging cable is connected to the charging connector provided on the hybrid vehicle is input to a power supply ECU and an HV_ECU having an operating frequency higher than that of the power supply ECU. When the connector signal CNCT is input, the power supply ECU activates the HV_ECU. The HV ECU controls the electrical system of the hybrid vehicle so as to charge a battery pack. The HV_ECU stops the charging when the input of the connector signal CNCT is stopped during charging of the battery pack.
