Description

In hybrid or electric vehicles (HEV, EVs), battery management systems, traction inverters, DC-DC converters, onboard chargers, and other subsystems that operate at high voltages need to have a high-voltage interlock loop (HVIL). HVIL is a low-voltage, low-current loop that monitors the physical state of the connectors. HVIL determines if connectors and wires are in a closed connection, open connection, short-to-battery fault, or short-to-ground fault. This HVIL fault signal is reported to safety logic in the vehicle to put high-voltage circuitry into a safe state. This design covers the generating and monitoring mechanism of the HVIL system.
