Another Xiaomi electric car patent granted

The news about Xiaomi electric cars is starting to multiply, especially regarding patents. Most recently for the car's front camera system they nodded in China. Now it has been disclosed in relation to the vehicle control electronics of electric cars.

The From the State Intellectual Property Office Xiaomi Auto Technology Co., Ltd. today filed a patent application for "electric vehicle and control circuit". The patent application publication number is CN114337263A, which was filed on February 21 this year.

It is clear from the patent abstract that the application relates to an electric vehicle and its control power circuit in the field of electronics. It can ensure that in the event of a low voltage battery failure, the low voltage side load and the high voltage side load continue to operate normally.

• The control power circuit is used in electric vehicles, including low voltage side load and high voltage side load.

• The control circuit in the control power circuit may control the first control power circuit to supply power to the low voltage side load based on the supply voltage provided by the low voltage battery and may control the first control power circuit when the supply voltage provided by the low voltage battery is within the voltage range, i.e. when the low voltage battery is not failing. The second control power supply circuit supplies the high voltage side load based on the supply voltage provided by the high voltage battery.

• The control circuit can control both the first control circuit and the second control circuit by the high voltage battery to the low voltage side load. Or based on the supply voltage provided to the high voltage side, if the supply voltage is provided by the high voltage battery. The low voltage battery is outside the voltage range, i.e. when the low voltage battery fails.

We are looking forward to Xiaomi's first concept or any tangible electric car news, not just leaked patents. The electric car market is getting huge and not only the design, but the features and functions will also come in for strong criticism. But we don't even know what it will come up with, a small city car, a mono-size car, an SUV, or something bigger and more exclusive. We're looking forward to it...
