Power electronics generally combine electronic components, electric power, and control methodology. DC electric energy conversion is implemented by power electronic circuits and the conversion efficiency is one of the most important performance considerations in hybrid vehicle system design. This chapter therefore presents the basic principles of commonly used power electronics in hybrid vehicle applications. It then presents the basics of DC‐DC converters and commonly used DC‐DC converters in hybrid vehicle systems. The chapter introduces the two types of DC‐DC converters in hybrid vehicle systems and the operating principle of most common DC‐AC converters. It describes the motor drive, which consists of an electric motor, a power electronic converter or inverter, and a torque/speed controller with related sensors. Plug‐in hybrid electric vehicles (PHEVs) and BEVs have been and continue to be developed. To charge the battery of a PHEV/BEV, a high‐efficiency charger is needed.
