    Abstract: A vehicle includes an integrated power distribution module. The integrated power distribution module includes a hybrid transformer coupled to a charger stage, a traction battery, and an auxiliary battery. The hybrid transformer includes first and second primary windings coupled in series and connected to the charger stage. The primary windings have a corresponding first secondary winding coupling the traction battery via associated inverters. The primary windings further have corresponding second secondary windings that are coupled in series with opposing voltage polarities and coupled to the auxiliary battery via an associated inverter.

    Abstract: A vehicle includes a first electric machine configured to generate low-voltage power. The vehicle includes a second electric machine configured to generate high-voltage power. The vehicle includes a power converter configured to convert high-voltage power generated by a second electric machine to low-voltage power. The vehicle includes a controller programmed to, responsive to a low-voltage power demand exceeding a limit of the power converter, operate the first electric machine and the power converter to satisfy the demand, and otherwise, responsive to the power converter being operational, operate only the power converter to satisfy the demand.

    Abstract: A hybrid electric vehicle includes an internal-combustion engine (ICE) and an electric machine coupled to a battery, an off-board power (OBP) system, and a controller, which are configured to power internal vehicle and battery charge electrical loads, and external electrical loads. The controller monitors the electrical loads, and responds to an OBP signal identifying an external electrical load, and commands the ICE and electric machine to generate a combined-power greater than or equal to the loads. This ensures that a battery state-of-charge is sustained and not depleted by power delivery to the external loads. The controller also generates a power-difference signal that identifies a difference between power generated by the electric machine and power consumed by the internal and external OFB electrical loads, such that the controller can adjusted the generated combined-power to minimize the power-difference signal and battery charge-discharge-cycles.
