Abstract
A starter including a double contact electromagnetic contactor () having an electrically controllable micro-actuator of the micro-solenoid type and an associated electronic control device (ECC). The electronic control device includes a first transistor commutation (T, T, CZ, RC, RC, SL) to control the excitation of a pull-in winding (L) of the contactor and a second transistor commutation (T, CZ, RC) to control the excitation of the micro-actuator. The second transistor commutation controls the excitation of the micro-actuator (MS) for a predetermined duration after activation of the electronic control device.
