Abstract

A power control system for a hybrid vehicle is provided. The system includes a high-voltage battery that is capable of being charged or discharged, a first motor and a second motor, a first inverter connected to the first motor, and a second inverter connected to the second motor. Additionally, a converter has a first side connected to the battery and a second side connected in parallel to the first inverter and the second inverter and a diode is connected in parallel to both sides of the converter. A controller is configured to operate the converter and the first and second inverters to cause electric power of the high-voltage battery to be bypassed via the diode and directly supplied to the first inverter or the second inverter.
