Abstract

La présente invention concerne un agencement de circuit et un procédé d'actionnement pour un convertisseur de tension continue, en particulier un convertisseur de tension continue présentant une topologie en pont complet déphasé, la puissance pouvant également être transmise à partir du côté primaire vers le côté secondaire lorsque la tension électrique sur le côté primaire est inférieure au produit de la tension électrique sur le côté secondaire et du rapport de transmission d'un transformateur dans le convertisseur de tension continue. De cette manière, par exemple, un condensateur sur le côté primaire du convertisseur de tension continue peut être déchargé afin de présenter un niveau de tension faible et sûr.
