  • HV/MV/LV DC/DC converter
    Patent number: 11784573
    Abstract: In at least one embodiment, a power conversion device for a vehicle is provided. The power conversion device includes a transformer, a microcontroller, and a control circuit. The microcontroller is configured to operate at a first frequency to receive a first current signal indicative of a current of a first voltage network and to generate a first envelope control signal in response to the first current signal. The controller is configured to selectively switch a first plurality of switches on a primary side and a second plurality of switches on a secondary side to convert a first input signal into first output signal in response to at least the first envelope control signal. The controller is further configured to selectively switch the first plurality of switches and the second plurality of switches at a second frequency that is greater than the first frequency.
