Abstract
A circuit arrangement of a motor vehicle includes a high-voltage battery for storing electrical energy, an electric machine for driving the motor vehicle, a converter via which high-voltage direct current voltage provided by the high-voltage battery is convertible into high-voltage alternating current voltage for operating the electric machine, and a charging connection for providing electrical energy for charging the high-voltage battery. The converter is a three-stage converter having a first switch unit which is assigned to a first phase of the electric machine. The first switch unit has two switch groups connected in series which each have two insulated-gate bipolar transistors (IGBTs) connected in series, where a connection is disposed between the IGBTs of one of the two switch groups, which connection is electrically connected directly to a line of the charging connection.
