POWER GENERATION VOLTAGE VARIABLE CONTROL SYSTEM
Power generation voltage variable control system that controls the power generation voltage of the alternator
has been adopted. By performing the power generation voltage variable control, the engine load due to the
power generation of the alternator is reduced and fuel consumption is decreased.
Operation Description

The battery current sensor detects the charging/discharging current of the battery. ECM judges the battery
condition based on this signal.

ECM judges whether to perform the power generation voltage variable control according to the battery
condition.

When performing the power generation voltage variable control, ECM calculates the target power genera-
tion voltage according to the battery condition and sends the calculated value as the power generation
command value to IPDM E/R.

IPDM E/R converts the received power generation command value into the power generation command
signal (PWM signal) and sends it to the IC regulator.

The IC regulator controls the power generation voltage by the target power generation voltage based on
the received power generation command signal.

When there is no power generation command signal, the alternator performs the normal power generation
according to the characteristic of the IC regulator.
NOTE:
When any malfunction is detected in the power generation voltage variable control system, the power genera-
tion is performed according to the characteristic of the IC regulator of the alternator.
Main Component Part
BATTERY CURRENT SENSOR

Battery current sensor (1) is installed to the battery cable at the
negative terminal, and it detects the charging/discharging cur-
rent of the battery and sends the voltage signal to ECM accord-
ing to the current value.
