BMW 3: Tasks
The Electrical Machine Electronics is made up internally of three
subcomponents:
- Bidirectional DC/AC converter
- Unidirectional DC/DC converter
- EME control unit
The Electrical Machine Electronics performs the following functions using the
subcomponents
mentioned:
- Torque restriction of the drivetrain in the event of faults and unstable
driving conditions
- Control of the internal subcomponents by the EME control unit
- Supply of the 12 V electrical system via the DC/DC converter
- Control of the electrical machine (engine speed, torque) using DC/AC
converter
- High-voltage power management
- Contacting the electrical machine
- Contacting the high-voltage battery unit
- Charging the high-voltage battery unit when driving (by energy recovery)
- Communication with other control units, in particular DME, SME and DSC
- Cooling for Electrical Machine Electronics
- Activation of the electric coolant pump for cooling the EME
- Activating the electrical vacuum pump
- Activating the shutoff valve for the vehicle interior
- Evaluation of the second Intelligent Battery Sensor
- Active evaluation of the signal for the high-voltage interlock loop
- Active and passive discharging of the link capacitor to voltages less
then 60 V
- Self-test and diagnosis.

Safety information
Warning
The system is designed to operate in certain
conditions and circumstances. Due to conditions
or other factors, the system may not respond.
There may be a risk of accident or risk
of damage to property. Actively intervene as
warranted. Refer to the information in this Own
Concept
In the event of an accident, the system can bring
the vehicle to a halt automatically without intervention
by the driver in certain situations. This
can reduce the risk of a further collision and the
consequences thereof.
At standstill
After coming to a halt, the brake is released automatica
