Classification: CPC B  H  Y | IPC B  H

Claim 15:
16. A method of charging an electric vehicle battery, the method comprising:
receiving, by an interleaved DC-DC control system, an electrical power input from an energy storage device, the electrical power input being received at an inrush current limiting circuit of the interleaved DC-DC control system, wherein the inrush current limiting circuit includes multiple switching components;
switching, by a controller communicatively coupled to the interleaved DC-DC control system, the multiple switching components on and off during an inrush current phase so that an electrical current flows continuously to multiple parallel boost converters of the interleaved DC-DC control system;
boosting, by the multiple parallel boost converters, an input voltage of the electrical power input to a higher voltage of the electric vehicle battery; and
transmitting, via unidirectional current circuitry, the electrical power input to the electric vehicle battery.
