Functional description

The charging interface module (LIM) can wake up the control units within the vehicle electrical system when the charging cable is being connected.

In addition, a direct line from the LIM control unit to the electrical machine electronics (EME) is present. The electrical machine electronics (EME) starts the voltage conversion and thus the charging procedure only if the LIM control unit enables the charging procedure via a signal on this line.

The following components are connected to the charging interface module (LIM):
