According to foreign media reports, on October 18, local time, the US Patent and Trademark Office (U.S. Patent and Trademark Office) announced Apple's latest patent application - "Converter Architecture" (Converter Architecture).

According to foreign media reports, on October 18, local time, the US Patent and Trademark Office announced Apple's latest patent application, "Converter Architecture", which discusses how to apply high voltage power. The power is 

converted to a lower voltage, which is closely related to the car system, ensuring a comfortable driving experience for passengers and ensuring sufficient power for car air conditioning, GPS and infotainment systems.

Electric and hybrid vehicles are usually powered by high-voltage batteries or another "high-energy storage," but while they are available for cars, cars need to use the same energy sources for air conditioning systems, dashboards, 

infotainment systems, and battery controllers. Parts and subsystems provide power.

Although converters are often used to convert high-voltage power supplies to lower voltages, Apple believes that converters are inefficient and subject to load transients that can cause damage to low-voltage batteries. In short, 

they are inefficient and have different power outputs that may affect other low voltage components connected to them.

Therefore, Apple's solution is to use multiple direct current (DC) converters to complete the task, using an unregulated DC-DC converter to convert the original high energy power to a lower voltage that can power the bus. The load 

is then passed to a second regulated DC-DC converter for regulating the voltage of the bus. A second, lower voltage source, such as a battery, can be connected to the regulated converter and can be charged at all times. If the power 

supplied to the regulated converter is below an acceptable level, a second power source can be used to supplement the power to bring the bus to a more appropriate power level so that the connected components can operate normally.

Although Apple filed a patent application, there is no guarantee that Apple will use the concept in future products. However, it is certain that Apple's patent source and its self-driving vehicle project, Project Titan.
