Abstract

L'invention concerne un convertisseur en pont double actif (DAB) pour lequel, lorsque la puissance est augmentée d'une première unité de courant continu (CC) à une seconde unité de CC et transmise, la première unité de CC et un enroulement primaire (n1) d'un transformateur d'isolation (TR1) dans un premier circuit à pont (11) sont raccordés électriquement à des moments autres que le temps mort. Un second circuit à pont (12) présente une première période pendant laquelle les deux extrémités d'un enroulement secondaire (n2) d'un transformateur d'isolation (TR1) sont court-circuitées dans le second circuit à pont (12), et une seconde période pendant laquelle l'enroulement secondaire (n2) du transformateur d'isolation (TR1) et la seconde unité de CC sont raccordés électriquement. Pendant une période pendant laquelle la puissance est augmentée de la première unité de CC à la seconde unité de CC et transmise, le circuit de commande (13) commande au moins un élément de commutation parmi un cinquième élément de commutation (Q5) à un huitième élément de commutation (Q8) pour être dans un état de marche.
