  • Patent number: 11411505
    Abstract: The invention relates to an insulated DC-DC converter, in particular for a motor vehicle, comprising—a first circuit, connected to a first electrical grid, and including a primary branch comprising at least one induction coil, —a second circuit, connected to a second electrical grid, and comprising a secondary branch comprising at least one induction coil, each induction coil of the primary branch being coupled with an induction coil of the secondary branch in order to form a transformer. According to the invention, said converter comprises at least one additional branch comprising at least one additional induction coil, said at least one additional branch being connected to the electrical grid, and said at least one additional induction coil being coupled with an induction coil of the secondary branch so that, according to one operating mode, the insulated DC-DC converter transfers energy from the low-voltage vehicle electrical grid to the electrical grid, in particular for pre-charging purposes.

  • Patent number: 10807476
    Abstract: The present invention pertains to an electrical system, in particular designed to be installed on board an electric or hybrid vehicle, whereby said electrical system includes an AC-to-DC converter that includes a rectifier and a DC-to-DC converter, an isolated DC-to-DC converter connected to a high voltage battery, and whereby said electrical system is configured, in a first operating mode, to be connected to an external alternating electricity grid to charge the high voltage battery. Furthermore, the first interface terminals of the DC-to-DC converter are connected to a low voltage battery, whereby said electrical system is configured so that, in a second operating mode, when the electrical system is disconnected from the external alternating electricity grid, said DC-to-DC converter supplies an initial voltage from the high voltage battery to power the low voltage battery.

  • Patent number: 10240987
    Abstract: The invention relates to a method for measuring the temperature of at least one electronic component (2) using a sensor (4) that supplies a temperature-dependent voltage. The method comprises the following steps in which: a signal representative of the voltage delivered by the sensor (4) is made to pass through an isolated differential amplifier (13), and the signal output from said isolated differential amplifier (13) is used to determine the temperature measured by the sensor (4).

  • Publication number: 20140347821
    Abstract: The invention relates to a method for producing a thermally conductive and electrically insulating link between at least one electronic component (2) and a completely or partially metal radiator (5), in which the electronic component (2) and the radiator (5) form part of an assembly (1) also comprising a printed circuit (4) disposed between the electronic component (2) and the radiator (5), said printed circuit (4) comprising at least one metal layer (8, 9) and a metal insert (13). According to the method, at least one metal surface (11, 12, 15, 16, 17) is anodised and the heat from the electronic component (2) is dissipated through said surface to the radiator (5), said metal surface belonging to one of the following: the electronic component (2), the printed circuit (4) or the radiator (5).
