Abstract
With the ever increasing demand of electrical
loads in vehicles, shifting towards a new voltage system is
inevitable as current 14V system is not meeting the needs. An
efficient and cost-effective switch mode-based 42V on/off -board
battery charger system using push-pull topology is designed.
Pulse width modulation (PWM) based feedback circuitry is
employed to regulate the output voltage. Circuit is simulated
first, before implementing practically. Circuit is tested
successfully by charging three 12V batteries connected in series.
Final converter was able to produce and regulate the voltage to
41.6V which is enough for charging.
