METHOD FOR CONTROLLING A DC-TO-DC VOLTAGE CONVERTER

Disclosed is a method for controlling a DC-DC voltage converter for driving with current at least one fuel injector of a motor-vehicle internal combustion engine. The method includes, when the transistor is switched from the off state to the on state, triggering a counter for measuring time, and, if at the end of a preset time called the “observation” time, the amplitude of the peak current has not reached its maximum value, steps of commanding that transistor so that the transistor switches from the on state to the off state, of keeping the transistor in the off state for a preset time called the “cooling time”, and of commanding the transistor so that the transistor switches to the on state at the end of the cooling time.
