Abstract
The invention relates to a converter module for delivering an electrical power supply from at least one first source generating electrical current, the module including both a first self-inductive branch extending between a power supply terminal for the first source and a node point and which is functionally associated with a shunt switch connected between the node point and a common mode pole, and a second branch extending between the node point and the common mode pole and presenting in series a controlled switch and a filter. The invention also provides a converter module wherein the filter has a first terminal for powering by an active terminal of a second source of electrical energy, in particular at least one battery.
