MULTI-TASKING POWER PROCESSOR FOR A VEHICLE ELECTRIC SYSTEM
First Claim
1. A multi-tasking power processor (104) for a vehicle electric system (100), comprising:
- a low voltage direct current bus interface (201);
a high voltage direct current bus interface (202);
a motor interface (203); and
converter circuitry (200) selectively configurable as a direct current boost converter and a direct current buck converter between the low voltage direct current bus interface (201) and the high voltage direct current bus interface (202), and further configurable as a motor drive between the motor interface (203) and the high voltage direct current bus interface (202).

Abstract
A multi-tasking power processor (104) for a vehicle electric system (100) is provided. The multi-tasking power processor (104) includes a low voltage direct current bus interface (201), a high voltage direct current bus interface (202), and a motor interface (203). The multi-tasking power processor (104) also includes converter circuitry (200) selectively configurable as a direct current boost converter and a direct current buck converter between the low voltage direct current bus interface (201) and the high voltage direct current bus interface (202). The multi-tasking power processor (104) is further configurable as a motor drive between the motor interface (203) and the high voltage direct current bus interface (202).
