Abstract: An output voltage control method and apparatus are provided. The method includes sensing output voltages of a DC-DC converter and a high-voltage battery and sensing an inductor current flowing through an inductor in a boost circuit at a front end of the DC-DC converter. In addition, the method includes varying a gain of an output voltage controller of the DC-DC converter based on a difference of the sensed inductor current with respect to an inductor current at the center point in a specified region.

Abstract: A bidirectional switch circuit includes two switching elements connected to conduct a current in both directions. The two switching elements are connected in series to each other. Of the two switching elements, the switching element to which a reverse voltage is applied, a voltage of a source of one of the switching elements being higher than a voltage of a drain of the one, is configured to conduct a current from the source to the drain even when an on-drive signal is not being input to a gate terminal of the one.
