Abstract
Abstract An information separation device that having a transformer operating as a separating filter to separate alternating voltage information and transmitted direct current power. The transformer has at least one winding on a first side coupled to the dc power. A capacitor is coupled to this winding, at whose ends direct current power is made available. The transformer has one winding on an information processing side. First and second valves are arranged in a transmitting branch parallel to the capacitor, the second winding being coupled at its first end between the first and second valves. Third and fourth valves are arranged in a branch parallel to the capacitor, the second winding being coupled in series at its first and second ends between the third and fourth valves in phase opposition to the first and second valves.
