Abstract

An apparatus includes an insulated metal substrate (IMS) board having a base metal layer and a conductive layer separated by a dielectric layer. The apparatus also includes a full bridge of a dual-full bridge power converter configured to convert between higher and lower electrical voltages. The full bridge is carried by the IMS board and is electrically coupled to the conductive layer. The full bridge includes multiple electrical switches configured to selectively form and break electrical connections with a transformer of the dual-full bridge power converter. The apparatus further includes at least one output capacitor carried by the IMS board. The at least one output capacitor is coupled to the full bridge and is configured to store electrical energy. The base metal layer is configured as a grounding plane for the full bridge, and the full bridge has split ground connections to the grounding plane.
