[[File:Prius Gen2 inverter internals.jpg|alt=|thumb|Internal look at the Prius Gen2 Inverter]]
The Toyota Prius is a hybrid vehicle. Their inverters are suitable and attractive for DIY EVs because of:
* Large part availability, Prii have been made in large numbers for 20 years and spares are inexpensive.
* High affordability. Prius inverters are available for around $150 from scrapyards everywhere.
* Durability. Toyota engineers appear to have made the inverters foolproof, many inputs and outputs gracefully handle fault conditions.
* Respectable performance. Rated for 50kW output, but tested to handle 600v, and [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y6mlXahM9B0 350+A for MG2 inverter, 250+A for MG1 inverter], 360kW total (480hp).
* Ease of re-purposing. Emulating the original ECU seems reasonably feasible.


The Gen2 Prius (2004-2009 model years) has a variety of useful components inside the inverter package:
This page is now deprecated in favor of the following new pages:
* 2 high power inverters, for the 2 motors MG1 (starter) capable of handling 250 amps, and MG2 (drive motor) capable of handling 350 amps.
* A DC-DC converter to provide 12v and up to 100amps power supply to the automotive systems and accessories.
* A tertiary power inverter to run the A/C, CAN controlled via the "BEAN" (????) network

== DC-DC Converter ==

[[File:Prius GEN 2 C 5 Connector Pinout.png|alt=|thumb|DC-DC converter "C 5" connector]]
The onboard DC-DC Converter is powered by the high voltage traction battery to supply 12v and up to 100A for low-voltage automotive components and 12 battery maintenance (plays the role of a traditional alternator). Direct control of the converter is simple as only 1 wire is necessary to activate it, but a second can be added in order to enhance control.
 
The 6-pin "C5" connector on the inverter needs to be wired as thus:

|4||NODD|| 0-5v+ ||Not Req.
|-
|5||VLO|| Unused? || ??

|}
 
The case of the inverter must be vehicle ground (12v battery negative terminal).
 
This will produce 13.2-15.2 VDC on the large C6 single-conductor connector nearby (equivalent to a car's 12v battery positive terminal), depending on voltage applied to pin 4 (if used). No base load is required to produce voltage. Pin 4, when grounded, will act as a "KILL" input and DC-DC output will drop to zero.
 
Note that this output is unfused and uncontrolled, and not disabled when the main inverter ignition is off (it will be on all the time unless pin 1 of the C5 connector or the HV inputs are off). It could be tied directly to the ignition switch same as the control board ignition receives (TB1-8 on the control board ... Or should that be TB1-1/TB1-2 which is controlled by ignition???), or it could have separate power-on control if desired.
 
Note on Limitations - As the signal to turn on the 12v converter (which converts the HV traction battery voltage down to 12v) requires some 12v power to turn itself on.  The DC-DC system is not designed  to charge up a low 12v battery and certainly not one that's completely dead. Doing so can damage the inverter/converter.
 
== Inverter Cooling ==
 
Inverter coolant enters at the front and exits the rear of the inverter housing from the o-ring port connected to the Hybrid Synergy Drive (HSD) cooling system reservoir.

The Toyota Prius Gen2 Board is an open source project to repurpose 2004-2009 Toyota Prius inverters for DIY EV use. It consists of a circuit board and programming that replaces the original logic board, connected to the inverter and allows independent control of it without communicating with a Prius ECU.
 
Note that there is also a [[Toyota Prius Gen3 Board]] for the 2010-2015 model years.
 
As designed by Damien Maguire, the open source hardware for the control board can be purchased as blank, unpopulated boards on his website: [https://evbmw.com/index.php/evbmw-webshop/toyota-bare-boards/prius-gen-2-inverter-bare-logic-board Prius Gen2 Logic Board on EVBMW's Webshop]
 
=== How To Use ===
The Prius Gen2 Board is suitable to control any (please add: motor types here) motors.
 
Note: There is a mistake in the printing on the v1 circuit board. The parts labelled T1, T2, and T3 - which are the small black transistors in the upper right of the board - are all drawn backwards to how they need to be inserted. These parts should be installed with the flat side of the component facing the opposite direction as the printing shows. The flat side should be to the right.
 
Schematics, Bill of Materials, and other documentation are available on [https://github.com/damienmaguire/Prius-Gen-2-Inverter Damien's Project Github]
(note: flesh out bill of materials here, or post changes to Damien to update his documentation directly?)
[[File:Prius Gen 2 inverter lower casing internals.png|thumb|300x300px|Prius gen 2 inverter lower casing internals]]
The control board utilizes the Blue Pill (link?) micro controller, and takes advantage of the OpenInverter.org software (link?) for control. It is also connected from the outside via the main (32 pin white) OEM connector - try to retrieve this connector and part of wiring loom when sourcing your inverter. Picture of connector further down in wiki.
 
The  control board design incorporates the use of the existing inverter Current Sensors - if FOC option is to be used (Gen 2 Transaxle MG2), bandwidth should be a multiple of control loop frequency which is 8.8kHz. (link to how to modify original setup?)
 
Functionality of the existing resolver is integrated as well. 
 
Assembly notes?
Blue Pill programming notes or just links to Blue Pill section?
 
Try to get all the wiring harness bits that plug into the inverter when you purchase it. Else, the 32-pin connector inside the inverter part number is: 1318747-1, and the pins to wire it are: 1123343-1

== New SMT control board with enclosure ==
Please add pictures and description.
 
== Software ==
 
The Control Board runs Open Inverter software. A set of known-good default inverter parameters can be found here: https://openinverter.org/wiki/Configuration_Files#Toyota_Prius_Gen2_Inverter
 
Do NOT program a deadtime value for the Gen2 inverter. It only uses 1 PWM per phase and the inverter itself generates a low-side and high-side signal WITH deadtime.
