A Comprehensive Review of Integrated Charger for on-Board Battery Charging Applications of Electric Vehicles

This paper provides an extensive review of integrated chargers for electric vehicle applications which are incidentally based on single-stage type converters and suitable for on-board battery chargers (OBCs). These integrated chargers achieves all modes of vehicle, i.e., plug-in charging, propulsion and regenerative braking modes. Each charger is discussed with their advantages and limitations. A comparative analysis of the integrated chargers has been conducted in terms of voltage/current stresses, buck/boost operating capabilities and number of components for each mode.
