Abstract
An electronic switch control system, including an alternating voltage source, an electronic switch, a load, a control circuit, an alternating voltage source being electrically associated to a first conduction terminal of the electronic switch, a second conduction terminal of the electronic switch being associable to a load, the load being associated to a second power terminal. The control circuit includes first, second and third electric potential terminals, and is arranged to command the electronic switch by way of a trigger terminal. The control circuit is electrically associated to a voltage regulator block that is electrically associable to the electronic switch by way of first and third electric contact terminals and first and second conduction terminals respectively, the voltage regulator block being arranged to provide a minimum electrical voltage (V) to run the control circuit in at least a conduction instant of the electronic switch.
