| Jan 16, 2021 at 18:43 | comment | added | DKNguyen | Since when is a SEPIC converter ever isolated? Do you know what being isolated actually means? It sounds like you don't from what way you talk about things. I don't see how a common mode choke does anything for isolation unless the concern was noise rather than safety. | |
| Jan 16, 2021 at 18:41 | comment | added | user16324 | I see a 0V line shared between input and output on at least one SEPIC illustration, so that one isn't. Please add a schematic of one you think might be isolated. It should be obvious that a common mode choke provides no isolation. | |

Never trust such statements, 99.5% are only written by people to make their article seem more interesting. Being one of the most popular topologies, I'm sure there's library shelves full of literature on it. | |
