3.3.3 Safety instructions for handling and operation

INSTRUCTION

Damage to the DC/DC converter: As a rule, it is to be ensured that the voltage ranges of all devices connected to the DC/DC

converter are identical.

Only use technically suitable and high-quality cables! A high cooling water temperature and/or ambient temperature reduces the life span! Therefore,

ensure that the device is continuously cooled sufficiently! Do not place the device in direct sunlight and in direct proximity to heat sources!

Even though the device has a high IP protection class, direct contact with water (rain, splashing water) is to be avoided if possible!

Never damage existing galvanic isolations (e.g. by connecting HV contacts with the device casing) in the vehicle.

Prevent any fluid ingress into the device (e.g. during assembly work). Fluid ingress will lead to a short circuit and subsequently to damage to the device!

In the case of any fluid ingress, do not start the device and immediately contact the company BRUSA Elektronik AG.

Always use an insulation monitoring unit to continuously monitor the galvanic isolation between the HV and LV circuit!

Never connect or disconnect the HV connectors without ensuring the absence of voltage beforehand!

Before connecting a voltage supply to the HV side of the DC converter (e.g.: HV battery), the voltage must be pre-charged via a suitable pre-charging device, see chapter 9.3 Voltage pre-charging.

INFORMATION

The device may be used up to a maximum altitude of 4,000 m above sea level!

3.4 Safety installations / power limitations

3.4.1 Short-circuit protection

Since, due to its resonant clock topology, the transformer stage has a certain internal resistance, the device is generally short-circuit proof. In the case of an external short-circuit (caused by the operator), this means that the voltage breaks down while the signal E_LV_UNDERVOL is emitted.

In the buck mode, undervoltage is identified on the LV side in the case of a short-circuit.

In the boost mode, undervoltage is identified on the HV side in the case of a short-circuit.

Independent of the operating mode, undervoltage is also identified at the respective power input.

3.4.2 Interlock

INSTRUCTION

In order to guarantee the function of the interlock, for the cable bridge (1) in the HV power connector it is not allowed to use another cable then the delivered. The cable has to prepare according the manual chapter 9.1 Producing the cable glands for the HV power connector.

With this safety installation, the proper connection of the connectors on the device is monitored. The device comprises an internal as well as an external interlock identification, which function independently of each other. An interruption of the interlock circuit causes an immediate shut-down of the device. In order to use the external interlock identification, the respective interlock pins must be connected at the control connector and the error detection must be activated (for details, please refer to the PARAM manual). With a shut-down of the device, the signal CRE_INTERLOCK is emitted.

The internal interlock identification monitors the HV power connector exclusively and is always active. The optional external interlock identification is an interlock loop, which is ideally looped through all HV components in the vehicle. The interlock signal must be generated and analysed respectively via an upstream control unit (e.g. BRUSA PDU254).

Further information on the interlock can be found in chapter 7.1.10 Pin 19 IL1, pin 20 IL2

3.4.3 Overload protection – derating

This safety installation is a self-protection feature of the DC/DC converter. If the device reaches a defined temperature threshold, this reduces the power rating (derating) to protect the device from damage caused by overheating. Consequently, the maximum possible current is reduced proportionally to the temperature increase in order to avoid a further rise in the temperature.

Via the CAN interface, the currently transferable current LVCUR_AVL is reported back. Here, it can be identified whether or not the device is in the derating mode.

A total of 8 temperature sensors are installed to measure the temperature. These sensors are divided into 4 measuring groups:

Installation position / measuring point Number of temp. sensors Active regulation max. current Switches buck / boost converter 2 no Switches HV side transformer stage 2 yes Switches LV side transformer stage 2 yes Winding HF power transformer 1 + 2 1 each yes

Switches buck / boost converter

Since very low losses occur at the switches of the buck / boost converter and an extremely efficient cooling predominates, these measuring values only show slightly increased values regarding the cooling liquid temperature. For this reason, these measuring values provide information on the actual ambient temperature in the device. Generally, the device shuts down when the temperature of the switches of the buck / boost converter is >/= 81°C. If this temperature falls to </= 80°C, the device is 100% operable again. Here, no derating occurs but a direct shut-down of the device. With a shut-down of the device, the signal E_OVERTEMP is emitted.

15 Technical information and start-up BSC624-12V-B

Windings of the HF power transformers

If the temperature at the windings of the HF power transformers reaches >/= 106°C, the current is reduced

successively to a temperature value of < 131°C. At >/= 131°C, the device shuts down.

If the temperature falls to </= 129°C, the device is operable again with reduced power according to the derating diagram.

With a shut-down of the device, the signal E_OVERTEMP is emitted.

Transformer stage switches

If the temperature at the transformer stage switches reaches >/= 95°C, the current is reduced successively to

a temperature value of >/= 120°C .

At >/= 120°C, the device shuts down.

If the temperature falls to < 120°C, the device is operable again with reduced power according to the derating diagram.

With a shut-down of the device, the signal E_OVERTEMP is emitted.

3.4.4 HV – Overvoltage shut-down

The device provides the following possibilities for identifying an overvoltage at the HV side:

Rapid HW overvoltage identification (immediate shut-down of the device if voltage > 470 V) Slow SW overvoltage identification (shut-down of the device if voltage > 456 V; automatic reactivation if

voltage < 454 V) With a shut-down of the device, the signal E_HV_OVERVOL is emitted.

3.4.5 LV – Overvoltage shut-down

The device provides the following possibilities for identifying an overvoltage at the LV side:

Rapid HW overvoltage identification (immediate shut-down of the device if voltage > 20 V)

Slow SW overvoltage identification (shut-down of the device if voltage > 16.4 V; automatic reactivation if voltage < 16.2 V)

With a shut-down of the device, the signal E_LV_OVERVOL is emitted.

3.4.6 HV – Undervoltage shut-down

The device provides the following possibilities for identifying undervoltages at the HV side:

Immediate shut-down of the device if HV voltage < 215 V

This error identification is deactivated for 3 s when starting the device in the boost mode. With a shut-down of the device, the signal E_HV_UNDERVOL is emitted.

3.4.7 LV – Undervoltage shut-down

The device provides the following possibilities for identifying undervoltages at the LV side:

Immediate shut-down of the device if LV voltage < 7 V

This error identification is deactivated for 5 s when starting the device in the buck mode. With a shut-down of the device, the signal E_LV_UNDERVOL is emitted.

3.4.8 HV – Automatic discharge

The device has an active as well as a passive intermediate circuit discharge. The active intermediate circuit discharge is implemented inherently via the internal HV supply and thus cannot be controlled. The passive intermediate circuit discharge is implemented via a resistor string:

Active intermediate circuit discharge: As soon as the device is separated from the HV supply, the internal HV circuits discharge to a value of < 50 V within 350 ms.

Passive intermediate circuit discharge: As soon as the device is separated from the HV, the internal HV circuits discharge to a value of < 50 V within 120 s.

6.4 Basic function / EMC concept The BSC624-12V is a bi-directional DC/DC converter with galvanic isolation between the high voltage and the low voltage circuit. The device is based on a transformer stage working in a serial-resonant manner, by means of which the galvanic isolation is realised. Furthermore, by means of two buck / boost converters working in a geared mode for the purpose of ripple reduction, the desired voltage can be set in the respective operating mode. With the resonant topology of the transformer stage and the auto-commutation of the buck / boost converter, losses can be limited to a minimum and excellent EMC properties can be achieved.

With the BSC624-12V, a compact, vibration-resistant and light-weight construction was prioritised in order to enable the usage in almost all applications and installation locations.

6.4.1 Topology benefits

The power component of the transformer stage is based on a resonant switching topology which is used for switching in the current zero-crossing. The buck / boost converter required for the voltage adaptation uses the auto-commutation principle, which leads to a soft commuting of the bridge point. Due to the significantly slower changes of current and voltage, EMC faults can be significantly reduced in comparison to hard-switching topologies.

6.4.2 Internal current supplies

Generally, the device can be supplied by HV as well as via pin 2 AUX. For the full operational availability,

however, the 12.5 V / 2.5 A supply must be active. This supply starts automatically at a HV voltage of > 75 V. Due to the greater output voltage, the 11.3 V / 1 A supply of pin 2 AUX is deactivated automatically in order to reduce the current consumption from the wiring system.

The 5V supply is guaranteed as soon as either pin 3 EN or pin 13 PRO are connected with pin 2 AUX. For safety reasons, the hardware-side self-retaining function (uC via Enable1) is deactivated at the software-side.

In order to guarantee an optional autarkic operation of the device, a 10.7 V / 0.1 A supply is implemented. Thus, for instance, pin 3 EN can be activated via a connection with pin 2 AUX in the customer side connector, by which means the device remains switched on at all times.

The 12.5V / 2.5A supply is also realised with the auto-commutation topology (analogous buck / boost converter). This supply is galvanically isolated from the high voltage circuit and furthermore functions without optocoupler.

In the boost mode, the drivers are initially supplied during the start-up by pin 2 AUX.

All supply circuits are short-circuit proof. The signal ground pin 1 GND is galvanically isolated from the power ground PGND. Thereby, stray voltage

and/or ground loops are avoided.

The capacitors ELV1 and ELV2 are implemented as SMD tantalum capacitors in order to achieve the respective capacity values required.

The capacitors CLV1 and CLV2 are implemented as SMD ceramic capacitors; thereby, a connection with extremely low impedance is achieved.

The capacitor CX is situated directly at the LV power connector. Since, in the case of a defect of these filter capacitors (e.g. short-circuit caused by a breakage of the component), the LV fuse does not provide any protection for the device, special and extremely reliable types are used which offer a very high degree of robustness with respect to mechanical forces.

The HV choke located at the input is generally of the common-mode choke type (Lh). However, it also helps to filter the differential mode interferences by means of the existing leakage inductance (Ls).

The wired Y capacitors (Cy2) together with the common-mode choke (Lh) form the common-mode filter.

In order to filter particular high-frequency common-mode interferences, Y capacitors (Cy1) with very low impedance are directly connected at the input.

The intermediate circuit capacitor (Cb) together with the leakage inductance of the HV choke (Ls) forms the differential mode filter. Due to the high clock frequencies, the capacitor may have very small dimensions. Thus, a rapid discharge of the intermediate circuit is possible.

6.4.5 AUX filter concept

In order to achieve an ideal cushioning of the line-bound interferences, all pins of the control connector are filtered to GND by means of SMD capacitors. GND, on the other hand, is connected to the housing with very low impedance. Thereby, a cross-talk of common-mode interferences from one pin to others can be largely suppressed.

Pin 2 AUX is additionally equipped with an X filter. Furthermore, pin 2 AUX is protected against surge and burst faults by means of a fast PTC fuse as well as a 36 V suppressor diode. The CAN interface is filtered against common-mode interferences by means of a special choke. All pins of the control connector are protected against air- or contact-discharged ESD faults. In the case of a CAN and RS232 interface, this is implemented by using special ESD diodes.

For suppressing high-frequency common-mode interferences, all pins are led through a ferrite core. For details on the wiring of individual pins, please refer to chapter 7.1 Pin assignment of control connector (device side)

INFORMATION

This safety concept is a recommendation of BRUSA Elektronik AG and is a general requirement for the safe operation of electric vehicles!

6.7.1 Principle of operation Interlock

The interlock switch (1) is closed if the corresponding interlock condition of each devices is met (closed service cover, plugged HV connections ...). The interlock evaluation of the PDU switches the 12V supply voltage (2) of the HV contactors (4) in the battery if the interlock circuit is closed. The emergency stop switch (3) also interrupts the 12V supply voltage of the HV contactors (4). The second interlock (5) of the line insulation guard interrupts the interlock circuit, if a fault in the HV- insulation is detected.

6.9 Dimensions and installation information For the installation of the device, the following points must be generally adhered to:

Despite the existing IP protection, the device should only be exposed to environmental influences to the extent required by the application.

The device may not be installed in the direct vicinity of heat sources (e.g. combustion motor).

The mechanical fixture is to be directed in a way that the device is installed in a fixed position and with as little vibrations as possible.

The cable inlets and cooling water ducts should have enough space and must never touch components with sharp edges.

All electrical connections are to be fixed within a distance of < 30 cm from the device with a strain relief in order to protect the cable and/or the cable harness at the control connector against vibration.

6.9.1 Fixing points

6.9.3 Installation position

Generally, no special installation position for the device is prescribed as the internal components are mounted in a vibration-resistant manner. However, the following installation positions are NOT allowed:

Connector side to the top: This causes the danger of condensate accumulation on the connectors, which in turn increases the risk of corrosion.

Connector side to the bottom: The water cooling circuit of the device has a U shape, which would now be upside down. In such case, the ventilation of the cooling circuit is difficult, and the device may be cooled insufficiently.

7.1.3 Pin 3 EN

INFORMATION

The admissible voltage range for pin 3 EN = high is 7 - 32 V. For a pin 3 EN = low, a voltage of < 1 V is required.

Internal wiring

To programme a new firmware, pin 13 must be PRO = high.

For this purpose, it is not necessary that pin 3 is EN = high. If voltage is applied to pin 2 AUX and if pin 3 is EN = high, the device is put into the operational mode. Most

appropriately, this is implemented by means of a connection of pin 3 EN with the Plus wiring system via a switch.

Even if high voltage is applied to the HV connector, the device-internal logic is only supplied if pin 3 is EN = high (or pin 13 PROG = high).

7.1.10 Pin 19 IL1, pin 20 IL2

INSTRUCTION

In order to guarantee the functioning of the interlock, the signal of the internal interlock identification in the HV connector may not be modified or distorted!

INFORMATION

The interlock is a safety-relevant function, which is processed internally but can also be analysed via an upstream system (e.g.: vehicle system). The interlock connection is looped via the HV connector (bridge in the HV customer side connector) and thus enables to check whether or not this connector is properly connected. The device has two independent interlock monitoring circuits: internal interlock identification

external interlock identification

Internal wiring

The internal interlock identification works independently from the usage of the external interlock identification

and it exclusively monitors whether or not the HV connector is properly connected. In the case of an error, the signal INTL_OC_int* is set and the error CRE_INTERLOCK is emitted via CAN. For safety reasons, the internal interlock identification cannot be deactivated.

By using the external interlock identification, not only the HV connector of the respective device but also those of additional devices can be checked.

For this purpose, the customer must feed in the interlock signal in the form of a DC current of at least 20 mA at pin 19 and / or pin 20. Here, the polarity is not relevant. To avoid damaging the internal resistor and optocoupler, the DC current must be limited to a maximum of 40 mA.

By means of the PARAM software, it is to be checked whether or not the external interlock identification has been activated and corrected if applicable.

If one of the monitored connectors is not contacted correctly, the loop is open and the input current can no longer flow. If a threshold of approx. 15 mA is undercut, the signal INTL_OC_ext* is set, while the error CRE_INTERLOCK is emitted via CAN.

The identification of the internal and external interlock error – provided that the latter is activated – leads to an immediate shut-down of the device.

By means of the PARAM software, it can be determined whether an existing interlock error has been detected

by the internal or external identification.

The LV connector is not integrated into the interlock circuit. For the wire bridge in the HV customer side connector the delivered wire has to be installed. The installed wire

bridge may not be removed or modified (e.g. extended)! For customers using an alternative interlock concept (e.g. feeding of a square wave signal, comparison of the

voltage level in the beginning and in the end of the interlock loop), R4 may be optionally equipped with a 0 Ω resistor in order to avoid any undesired voltage drop.

Please note that, in such case, the external interlock identification of the device no longer functions and that, therefore, it must be deactivated in the PARAM software.

When placing the order, it is to be ensured that a device version which is suitable for the interlock concept to be used is selected:

BSC624-12V-B01: R4 = 62R (this is a customer-specific version)

BSC624-12V-B02: R4 = 62R

BSC624-12V-B03: R4 = 0R

BSC624-12V-B04: R4 = 62R

BSC624-12V-B05: R4 = 0R

10 Operation

10.1 Installation and operation of the PARAM software The PC software folder of the customer package includes the software PARAM_2.0.zip. For the PARAM_Manual_Installation_Usage manual, refer to Manuals. This manual describes the installation of the required PCAN_API drivers as well as of the PARAM tool. Additionally, the user interface and the operating functions of the PARAM tool are generally described.

The BSC6_PARAM_Manual_xxxxxx describes the operating functions of the PARAM tool for the BSC6. The manual is field in the same folder of the customer package.

INFORMATION

All CAN applications are based on the CAN hardware of PEAK System (www.peak-system.com). For CAN communication, it is recommended to use a galvanically isolated USB adapter with suitable 120 OHM terminating resistor: IPEH-002022 (PCAN USB adapter) IPEK-003003 (PCAN terminating resistor)

10.2 CVI software installation The CVI CAN user interface can be found in the PC software folder as CVI.zip.

If the PARAM software has already been installed with the required drivers, the CVI folder of the Zip files only needs to be copied to the PARAM installation folder. The CVI software does not require any further installation steps.

If the PCAN USB adapter (dongle) is connected to the PC, the CVI and PARAM software can be started over the “StartBSC6xx.cmd”-File.

10.3 Operation of the device

INFORMATION

Optionally, the CAN user interface (CVI) may also be implemented by BRUSA if the device is not integrated into an existing CAN communication network. The following image shows an example of the user interface. Here, the start-up is implemented as described. The CVI software serves as user interface for internal laboratory applications for BRUSA Elektronik AG. The CVI is provided to customers as example for a custom user interface for first tests with no guarantee.

Connect pin 3 EN with pin 2 AUX (e.g. actuate ignition key, close switch etc.).

Start the CAN user interface and press the Go button in order to enable the communication with the device.

Press the Run button in order to activate the power stage. The communication with the device is ensured when the displays Tx and Rx are flashing.

To allow for the main controller to fulfil its function, it is to be guaranteed that no limiting controller is meshed.

The device can be switched off in every operating mode by another actuation of the Run button and a deactivation of pin 3 EN. In the case of an emergency, an abrupt disconnection of the high voltage by opening the contactors is also admissible.
