Overview

Overview of the purpose and connectivity of the HIL Electric Vehicle Charging Interface

HIL Electric Vehicle Charging Interface overview

The HIL Electric Vehicle Charging Interface constitutes two devices: a C-HIL (Controller Hardware in the Loop) device and a P-HIL (Power Hardware in the Loop) device (Figure 1), designed to work with Typhoon HIL simulator devices. The interfaces occupy a total of 8U within standard 19" rack mount enclosures, and directly supports testing for ISO 15118 compatible charging applications.

The interface features:

Internal C14 connector power supply for supporting the interface solution (C-HIL interface)
DIN 41612 connectors for interfacing Analog and Digital I/Os with the HIL Simulator device
CAN interface (P-HIL interface)
Ethernet connector for Power line communication (PLC) (C-HIL interface)
Phoenix connector for direct PE, CP, and PP signal access (P-HIL interface)
Pheonix connector CCS Type 2 / Combo (P-HIL interface)
