• This contribution describes a development of a fast-charger for an electric vehicle. Useful modular conception of the power part was chosen. The modules can be serial-parallel reconfigured - for various battery voltage levels. Single-module output parameters are 160 V/16 kW. The charger is based on a DC/DC transistor converter using Cool-MOS transistors and SiC diodes. A non-usual topology of the power circuit is performed. This circuitry was designed (first version), realized and it was just tested. High switching frequency is used at the large output power (80 kHz -16 kW). This way the dimensions of the device are minimised.
