Abstract
A system can include a bi-directional converter circuit comprising a plurality of switches and a flying capacitor configured to experience a low voltage or a high voltage, and a control module operatively connected to the plurality of switches to control a state of the plurality of switches. The control module can be configured to receive a sense signal indicative of a flying capacitor voltage and to control the one or more switches of the plurality of switches to charge or discharge the flying capacitor to maintain a target voltage or target voltage range.
