Standard Content

1. Voltage Range Definitions

Voltage Range Status Description Typical Scenarios
54V<U≤60V Overvoltage Protection Battery charging, DC/DC converter high voltage transient protection
52V<U≤54V High Voltage Range with Functional Limitations Energy recovery, high power load startup
36V≤U≤52V Normal Operating Voltage Range Regular operation, all functions normal
24V≤U<36V Low Voltage Range with Functional Limitations Cold start
20V≤U<24V Undervoltage Protection Long-term parking

2. Functional Status Classification

Functional Status A

The components are operational without limitation and provide their specified function.

DUT can operate normally without functional limitations.

Functional Status B

The components continue to be operational without limitation. The components provide a function within the deviations permissible for functional status B. The components must automatically provide their specified function on return to functional status A.

DUT operates within permissible deviations for Functional Status B without limitations and can automatically return to Functional Status A.

Functional Status C

The components continue to be operational, must not assume undefined statuses and, in particular, must not cause any other components to malfunction. The components may reduce their electrical power for reasons of self-protection. The components must automatically provide their specified function on return to functional status A or B.

Some functions are limited, with self-protection capabilities during faults, and can automatically recover to Functional Status A or B.

Functional Status D

The components continue to be operational, and they must not assume undefined statuses. The components may reduce their electrical power to zero. At the end of the exposure, the DUT must return to functional status A by means of reset(e.g., change of ignition status, new start of the vehicle).

Some functions are limited, power can be automatically cut off during faults, and can recover to Functional Status A after system restoration.
