Abstract:
A system includes a bus, and a variable voltage converter (VVC) having a switch in series with a capacitor, and an inductor in parallel with the capacitor and switch, and configured such that operation of the switch in boost mode over a duty cycle range from 0 to less than 0.5 results in a corresponding voltage output to the bus from 0 to a maximum of the VVC.

Claim (Index 12):
A system comprising:\n a bus; a variable voltage converter (VVC)\n including a pair of switches, a capacitor in series with one of the switches, and an inductor in parallel with the capacitor and the one of the switches, and \n configured such that operation of the switches in boost mode over a duty cycle range from 0 to less than 0.5 results in a corresponding voltage output to the bus from battery voltage to a maximum of the VVC; \n an inverter connected to receive voltage output to the bus and to generate phase voltage to power an electric machine; and a battery connected to power the VVC such that the phase voltage generated by the inverter approaches voltage of the battery, wherein the inverter is further configured to generate phase current output independent of current output of the battery such that a power factor of the inverter approaches 1.
