1-15. (canceled)
An electronic device for charging and/or generating electric power for a traction system of a motor vehicle coupled to a battery, comprising:
- a first rectifier stage configured to be connected directly to a single-phase or a three-phase power supply network or to a load to be powered;
- a second inverter stage configured to be connected to the battery;
- means for regulating average current flowing between the first stage and the second stage;
- and
- control means for controlling a transfer of electric power between the power supply network and the battery, or the supply of a passive load.
A method for loading and/or generating power for a traction system of a motor vehicle coupled to a battery, using an electronic device, comprising:
- a first rectifier stage configured to be connected to a power supply network or to a load to be powered;
- a second inverter stage configured to be connected to the battery;
- and
- means for regulating average current flowing between the first stage and the second stage,
- wherein a transfer of electric power is controlled between the power supply network and the battery, or else the powering of a load is controlled.
