Abstract
The invention relates to an insulated DC/DC converter comprising: a magnetic component having a primary part and a secondary part separated by an electrical insulation barrier; breakers linked to the primary part of the magnetic component allowing the magnetic component to transfer energy from the primary part to the secondary part and to store energy at the level of the primary part; and in which the secondary part of the magnetic component comprises a first arm and a second arm, each arm comprising a first breaker, a secondary and a second breaker in series; an intermediate point of the secondary of the first arm being connected to an intermediate point of the secondary of the second arm.

An insulated DC/DC converter comprising:
- a magnetic component having a primary part and a secondary part separated by an electrical insulation barrier;
- switches, referred to as primary side switches, linked to the primary part of the magnetic component such that the switching of the primary side switches with a duty cycle
- over the modulation periods allows the magnetic component to transfer energy from the primary part to the secondary part and to store energy at the primary part, to convert an input voltage of the insulated DC/DC converter into an output voltage;
- and
- in which the secondary part of the magnetic component comprises a first arm and a second arm, each arm comprising a first switch, a secondary and a second switch in series;
- an intermediate point of the secondary of the first arm, referred to as first secondary, being connected to an intermediate point of the secondary of the second arm, referred to as second secondary.
