The interlock system design is based on OEM requirements. This reference design can handle most user requirements with the given topology and diagnosis requirements. The topology of the reference design can be easily tweaked to get the required performance of an interlock system. As Figure 1-1 shows, interlock is interfaced to every high-voltage component. The interlock signal is mostly generated and closely monitored by the battery because this source of power can quickly turn off the high-voltage power contactors.
