A detailed review on various DC–DC and DC–AC converters used in electric vehicle (EV) and hybrid electric vehicle (HEV) is discussed in this chapter. Motor, inverter, DC–DC converter, and battery pack constitute an integral part of modern EV/HEV. In this chapter, an insight on various DC–DC (Chopper) and DC–AC (Inverter) converters used in EV and HEV are also presented. In order to appreciate the role of DC–DC converters in drives, a closed-loop speed control of a separately excited DC motor using PWM control was modeled and simulated using MATLAB/Simulink. The mathematical model for the motor was simulated and analyzed using MATLAB/Simulink using “Commonly Used Blocks” with appropriate step size. Various types of multilevel inverters used for drive applications were discussed.
