Abstract

A device for controlling at least one transistor is disclosed. The device includes the transistor, which includes a control electrode and two other electrodes, a main control circuit connected to the control electrode of the transistor and configured to control the state of the transistor in a main operating mode, and an auxiliary control circuit configured to inject, in an auxiliary operating mode. An auxiliary current opposed to the current flows between the main control circuit and the control electrode of the transistor.
