Abstract
An isolated monolithic electrical converter including a substrate made of a resistive material, the underside of which has two input electrodes spaced apart from each other, constituting the primary, an insulating layer on the top side of the substrate, and, on the insulating layer, at least two elements made of respectively p-doped and n-doped semiconductor thermoelectric materials electrically connected in series, the ends of the series connection constituting the secondary of the converter.
Claims6
An isolated monolithic electric converter comprising, on a substrate made of a resistive material having its lower surface comprising two input electrodes distant from each other forming a primary:
- an insulating layer, and
- at least two respectively P- and N-doped thermoelectric semiconductor elements electrically connected in series, the ends of the series connection forming the secondary of the converter.
A cell phone provided with the converter of any of the foregoing claims.
