Driver circuit for an electric vehicle and a diagnostic method for determining when a first voltage driver is shorted to a high voltage and a second voltage driver has a low electrical current flowing therethrough
Abstract:
A driver circuit and a diagnostic method are provided. The driver circuit includes a first voltage driver, a second voltage driver, and a microprocessor. The microprocessor generates a first pulse width modulated signal to induce the first voltage driver to output a second pulse width modulated signal to energize a contactor coil. The microprocessor sets a first diagnostic flag equal to a first value if a first filtered voltage value is greater than a first threshold value. The microprocessor sets a second diagnostic flag equal to a second value if a first filtered current value is less than a threshold value. The microprocessor stops generating the first pulse width modulated signal to de-energize the contactor coil if the first and second diagnostic flags are set equal to the first and second values, respectively.
