Abstract
A DC/DC converter comprises a transformer having a primary and a secondary, a winding of the primary forming part of a transformer power supply self-oscillating circuit. The primary side includes a controllable circuit that receives a first digital signal to be transmitted to the secondary, and a modulation device acting on the self-oscillating circuit. The secondary side comprises a detection and de-modulation circuit for recovering the first signal. The modulation device delivers a second signal that controls, via a switch, application of a first DC voltage across the self-oscillating circuit when the second signal is in a first state, the second signal comprising first pulse trains in a second state during first periods of the first signal. The detection and demodulation circuit comprises a device for reconstructing the first pulse trains of the second signal based on interruptions of energy recovered at the secondary, thereby deducing the first signal therefrom.
