A charging apparatus and an electric vehicle including the same are disclosed. The charging apparatus includes a rectifier to rectify input alternating current (AC) power in a charging mode, an interleaved buck-boost converter to convert the rectified power into direct current (DC) power to supply the converted DC power to a battery, the interleaved buck-boost converter including a plurality of buck-boost converters, and a converter controller to control the interleaved buck-boost converter, wherein a first buck-boost converter of the interleaved buck-boost converter includes a first buck switching element connected to the rectifier, a first boost switching element, an inductor connected between the first buck switching element and the first boost switching element, a first diode connected in parallel between the first buck switching element and the inductor, and a second diode connected between the first boost switching element and an output of the interleaved buck-boost converter.

Charge apparatus and electric vehicle including the same

Disclosed are an air conditioning system and a method for controlling an operation thereof, whereby a charging device for charging power to be supplied into the indoor unit is employed, a chargeable control unit is separately employed, or a separate control unit connectable between the indoor unit and an electronic expansion valve is employed, thereby closing the electronic expansion valve even if power supplied into the indoor unit is blocked while controlling opening and closing of the electronic expansion valve, and additionally preventing the electronic expansion valve from being left open, resulting in prevention of an overload of a compressor within an indoor unit.
