Abstract
A bidirectional switch, including a first bidirectional switch between two power terminals of the switch, a low-voltage storage element between a first power terminal and a control terminal of the switch, and a control stage adapted to cause, upon each halfwave beginning of an A.C. supply voltage applied between the power terminals and when the switch is on, the charge of the storage element with a biasing depending on the sign of the halfwave.
