Abstract

Various disclosed embodiments include illustrative controller modules, direct current (DC) fast charging devices, and methods. In an illustrative embodiment, a controller module for a DC-DC converter includes a controller and computer-readable media configured to store computer-executable instructions configured to cause the controller to receive an input voltage Vin to the DC-DC converter, receive an output DC voltage Vo from the DC-DC converter, generate control signals configured to control a charging output of the DC-DC converter responsive to the received input voltage Vin and output voltage Vo, and output the generated control signals to the DC-DC converter.
