Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
In one embodiment a multi-mode battery charger for a vehicle is provided. The charger includes a controller. The controller is electrically coupled to a plurality of charging systems. Each charging system is configured to provide a first power from an external power source and to convert the first power into a second power that is suitable for storage on at least one battery on the vehicle. The controller is configured to enable a first charging system of the plurality of charging systems to provide the first power based on a charging priority order in the event two or more of the plurality of charging systems are each determined to provide the first power to the vehicle at the same time.
