Abstract: A voltage regulator with brush holder assembly (100) for a rotary electric machine intended for an automotive vehicle, which assembly comprises: —a brush holder comprising brushes that are capable of coming into electrical contact with a rotor of the rotary electric machine in order to apply an excitation signal thereto; —a microcontroller for regulating said excitation signal; —a body made of electrically insulating material, said body taking the overall shape of a T and in which said brush holder and said microcontroller are housed, characterized in that the voltage regulator with brush holder assembly (100) comprises two parts: —a first part (200) forming a central portion of the T-shaped body and extending along a first axis (z1-z2), said first part (200) comprising a housing (201) for accommodating the brush holder and a second part (300) forming a lateral portion of the T-shaped body and extending along a second axis (y1-y2) perpendicular to said first axis (z1-z2), said integrated circuit being housed

Abstract: The invention relates to a device for controlling an alternator of the type that controls a DC voltage (B+A) generated by the alternator (11) according to a predetermined set voltage (U0) by monitoring the intensity of an energizing current (IEXC) flowing through an energizing circuit of the alternator. According to the invention, the device includes a voltage-control loop (7) and a temperature-control loop (17) which comprises a temperature sensor supplying a current temperature (T) of components of the alternator, a subtracter (19) supplying a temperature error (?t) between the current temperature (T) and a maximum acceptable temperature (Tmax) and a control module (20) supplying a maximum admissible energizing percentage (rmax) in accordance with the temperature error according to a predetermined control law.
