    Usually, an electronic architecture intended to supply an electrical machine, particularly for a motor vehicle, may comprise a plurality of electronic units, also called electronic modules, the electronic units being, for example, electronic units of power, excitation or control. Each electronic unit comprises a housing in which the electronics are integrated, the housings of the electronic units being directly integrated within the electronic architecture. However, in such an electronic architecture, the power electronics and the control electronics are adjacent to the level of the support of the electronic units, which can induce disturbances in the operation of the electronic architecture. Indeed, the heat generated by the electronic power units can disrupt the operation of the electronic control unit. In addition, the housing of each electronic unit can alter the heat dissipation generated by each electronic unit. In addition, as each electronic unit comprises a housing, such an electronic architecture requires an important place within the electronic architecture in which it is intended to be integrated.

For this purpose, the subject of the invention is an electronic architecture intended to power an electric machine for a motor vehicle, the electronic architecture comprising at least: an electronic power unit; a heat sink supporting the electronic power unit; an electronic control unit configured to control said electronic power unit; a support of the electronic control unit supporting the electronic control unit and arranged between the electronic power unit and the electronic control unit; and an electrical connector comprising at least one trace of power intended to be electrically connected to at least electrical elements of the electrical machine and / or of a source of electrical energy, the electrical connector being arranged between the electronic unit of power and support of the electronic control unit and configured to electrically connect the electronic power unit and / or the electronic control unit to the at least one trace of power.
    Advantageously, the decoupling of the electronic control and power units within the electronic architecture allows efficient dissipation of the heat generated by the electronic units.
    In addition, such an electronic architecture allows a reduction in production costs, in particular by reducing the manufacturing costs of the electronic control unit which is isolated from the electronic power unit, and therefore away from the heat generated. by said electronic power unit. Indeed, such an electronic architecture allows the use of components for the electronic control unit requiring a lower heat tolerance, and therefore less expensive. The electronic architecture according to the invention may also comprise one or more of the following characteristics, considered individually or according to all the possible combinations: the electronic power unit, the heat sink, the electrical connector, the electronic control unit and the support of the electronic control unit each extend in substantially parallel planes, the electronic power unit, the heat sink and the electrical connector being in particular superimposed on each other; the electrical connector comprises: a first power trace for electrically connecting the electronic power unit to a phase of the electric machine; A second trace of power intended to be electrically connected to a pole of positive polarity of a source of electrical energy so as to supply the electronic power unit and / or the electronic control unit; and • a third power trace intended to be electrically connected to a pole of negative polarity or to the ground of a source of electrical energy so as to supply the electronic power unit and / or the electronic control unit; the electronic architecture further comprises at least one electrical connection element electrically connecting the electronic power unit and the electronic control unit; and wherein at least one gap extends between the power electronics unit and the control electronics support and around the at least one electrical connection member, said electrical connector extending at least partially in said space around the electrical connection element; the electronic architecture also comprises a capacity block connector supported by a second part of the heat sink separate from a first part supporting the electronic power unit; the first part of the heat sink is intended to be filled with an insulating material, so that the electronic power unit is embedded in the insulating material; the electronic power unit, the electronic control unit and the at least one electrical connection element are embedded in an insulating material, so that the at least one space extending around the at least one electrical connection element between the electronic power unit and the support of the electronic control unit is devoid of insulating material; - The electronic architecture also comprises a protective cover arranged vis-à-vis the electronic control unit; the electronic power unit comprises at least one electronic power module, and the electronic control unit is an electronic control card.
    Advantageously, such an electronic architecture allows efficient dissipation of the heat generated by the electronic units, in particular by virtue of the space devoid of insulating material between said electronic units.
    In addition, such an architecture allows a reduction in production costs, in particular by reducing the amount of insulating material needed to isolate the electronic units and the electrical connection elements of said electronic units. The invention also relates to an electric machine intended to be integrated into a motor vehicle comprising an electronic architecture according to the invention. For example, the electric machine is a starter, an alternator-starter or another electrical machine embedded in the vehicle.

    An electronic architecture according to the invention is intended to power an electric machine for a motor vehicle, such as a rotating electrical machine. In particular, FIG. 6 represents an electrical machine 1 comprising an electronic architecture 10 according to one embodiment of the invention. The electronic architecture 10 is in particular intended to be mounted on the casing 2 of the electrical machine 1. In particular, the electronic architecture 10 is intended to be screwed to the casing 2 of the electric machine 1. However, the electronic architecture 10 it could not be mounted on the casing 2 of the electric machine 1. For example, the electronic architecture 10 could be mounted on a support independent of the electric machine 1. For example, the electric machine is a starter, an alternator-starter or another machine on board the vehicle.
    Such an electronic architecture comprises at least one electronic power unit, in particular for powering the electric machine 1, and an electronic control unit, in particular for controlling the electronic power unit. The electronic power unit may, for example, be one or more electronic power modules, as illustrated in the figures. Of course, the electronic power unit is not limited to electronic power modules, but on the contrary the electronic power unit could be any other electronic power component for powering an electric machine.
    Similarly, in the following description, the electronic control unit is an electronic control board as shown in the figures. Of course, the electronic control unit could be any other electronic control component.
    In particular, an electronic architecture according to one embodiment of the invention is shown in FIG. 1. The electronic architecture 10 comprises at least one electronic power module 100, here three in number, a heat sink 200, an electronic card 300, an electronic card support 400 and an electrical connector 500.
    The heat sink 200 supports the electronic power modules 100, and the electronic card support 400 supports the electronic control card 300. The electronic card support 400 is arranged between the electronic power modules 100 and the electronic control card 300. The electrical connector 500 is arranged between the power electronic modules 100 and the support of the electronic control card 400.
    Preferably, the power electronic modules 100, the heat sink 200, the electrical connector 500, the electronic control card 300 and the support 400 of the electronic card each extend in substantially parallel planes. In particular, the power electronic modules 100, the heat sink 200 and the electrical connector 500 are in particular superimposed on each other, as shown in FIG.
    In addition, according to the illustrated embodiment, the electronic architecture 10 advantageously comprises a capacity block connector 600, a sensor holder 700, a brush holder 800 and a protective cover 900. The capacity block connector 600 is preferably arranged between the electronic control board 300 and the electronic power modules 100, so that the connector 600 and the electronic units are superimposed. The protective cover 900 is arranged vis-à-vis the electronic control card 300.
    The different elements of the electronic architecture are detailed in the following description.
    In particular, FIG. 2 represents an assembly comprising an electronic power unit, here an electronic power module 100, and a heat sink 200.
    The electronic power module 100 comprises a planar substrate 110, comprising an upper face 112 and a lower face 114, the lower face 114 being arranged facing the heat sink 200. The planar substrate 110 comprises at least one overmolded power trace at least partly electrically insulating material, preferably plastic material. In particular, the plane substrate 110 of the power electronic module 100 comprises three power traces 102 overmolded at least in part of electrically insulating material. A trace of power is an electrically conductive trace, in particular a metallic trace, for example a metal strip, such as, among others, a copper strip. A power trace is in particular configured to withstand an electric current for circulation in the electric machine.
    Each trace of power 102 comprises at least one portion devoid of overmolding, in particular intended to be electrically connected to electrical elements outside the power electronic module 100, for example to electrical elements of the electric machine. For example, the first power trace is intended to be electrically connected to a phase φ of the electric machine, the second power trace is intended to be electrically connected to a pole of positive polarity B + of a source of electrical energy, and the third power trace is intended to be electrically connected to a pole of negative polarity B "or to a reference potential, for example to ground, of a source of electrical energy. for example between 0.5 mm and 5 mm, and generally depends on the thickness of the power traces, for example, the thickness of the power traces is between 600 microns and 2000 microns.
    Preferably, the planar substrate 110 is devoid of lateral walls extending from the planar substrate 110 and in particular from the upper face 112 of the planar substrate 110, allowing simplification of the manufacturing process, as well as a saving of space within the electronic architecture.
    According to a preferred embodiment, the planar substrate 110 comprises an upper part and a lower part, advantageously formed in continuity of material. In particular, the upper part comprises at least one trace of power 102, and the lower part comprises at least one open cavity 126, in particular visible in FIG. 2. The bottom of the open cavity 126 is preferably formed at least in part by at least a portion of a power trace. The overmolding 108 of the power traces 102 at least partially forms the edge of the open cavities 126. In particular, as shown in FIG. 2, the electronic power module 100 comprises two open cavities 126. The open cavities make it possible in particular for a heat dissipation. .
    As shown in FIG. 2, the electronic power module 100 comprises at least one electronic component 128, arranged on the upper face 112 of the plane substrate 110, so as to be electrically connected to one of the power traces.
    The power electronic module 100 may also comprise at least one external connection element 130 for electrically connecting a power trace of the power electronic module 100 to at least one electrical element external to the power electronic module 100, for example to the electrical connector. 500. The external connection element 130 is disposed on the same face of the plane substrate 110 as the electronic component 128. The external connection element 130 may comprise a tongue of folded conductive material, for example in the form of a "Z" shape. so as to include at least one lower planar face in contact with the planar substrate 110, in particular with the power trace, and an upper planar face intended to be electrically connected to the external electrical element to the power electronic module 100, for example to the electrical connector 500.
    Preferably, the assembly of the external connection elements 130 and the electronic components 128 on the plane substrate 110 is obtained by deposition of solder paste and then by the arrangement of the electronic components 128 and the external connection elements 130 on the surface of the planar substrate 110 of the electronic power module ("CMS"). The electrically insulating material of the planar substrate 110 of the electronic module 100 is advantageously of the high temperature plastic material type, so as not to be altered during the passage of the electronic module 100 in the oven for the reflow of the components. Such a method of manufacturing the electronic modules makes it possible to reduce the number of links between the components of the electronic module 100, in particular the electronic components 128 and the external connection elements 130, and thus to simplify the method of manufacturing and assembling the modules. e.
    In addition, the assembly of the electronic components 128 and the external connection elements 130 directly on the planar substrate 110 saves space in the electronic architecture 10.
    In particular, the electronic components 128 and / or the external connection elements 130 are mounted on a power trace 102. In particular, an electrical contact is made with the power trace 102 by the face of the electronic component 128 or the element. 130 which is in contact with the power trace 102. In addition, each electronic component 128 may be in electrical contact with other electronic components 128, or another trace of power than that on which it is mounted, particularly by wire connections, also called "bonding" in English.
    The electronic power module 100 as described above is received by the heat sink 200. Indeed, the heat sink 200 comprises a first portion 202 forming a receiving cavity of one or a plurality of electronic power modules 100, and a second portion 204 detailed later in the description.
    The heat sink 200 is configured to allow thermal and electrical conduction, in particular for the recovery of the mass and the dissipation of heat. The first part 202 comprises a bottom from which extends substantially perpendicularly at least one protuberance 206 of the heat sink 200. The or each open cavity 126 of the power electronic module 100 is intended to receive at least one protuberance 206.
    The or each protrusion 206 is intended to be covered with a thermally conductive material and electrically insulating, for example a thermal grease. The or each protrusion 206 is in contact with the bottom of each cavity 126 of the power electronic module 100. In particular, the electronic power module 100 is mechanically supported by the at least one protrusion 206. In other words, the electronic power module 100 is intended to be supported on the protuberances 206 of the heat sink 200, so that a space between the electronic power module 100 and the remainder of the bottom of the first portion 202 of the heat sink 200 results. This ensures a mechanical contact between the electronic power module 100 and the protrusion 206 to allow effective thermal dissipation of the power electronic module 100.
    In addition, the first portion 202 of the heat sink 200 may include positioning members 210 for positioning the electronic modules 100 on the heat sink 200 in a predetermined position. These positioning elements 210 make it possible to facilitate and guarantee a correct and rapid positioning of the electronic modules 100 on the heat sink 200.
    Advantageously, the first part 202 of the heat sink 200 is intended to be filled with an insulating material A, in particular visible in FIG. 5, so that the electronic power module 100 is embedded in the insulating material A. The insulating material can be an insulating gel, for example a silicone gel, or an insulating resin, for example an epoxy resin. Thus, this configuration allows effective isolation of the electronic modules 100.
    The power modules 100 are attached to the heat sink 200, for example glued on the bottom of the first portion 202 of the heat sink 200, to allow heat transfer between the power modules 100 and a cooling circuit (not shown), so to dissipate the heat generated by the electronic modules 100.
    In addition, the electronic architecture 10 comprises at least one electrical connection element 150 configured to electrically connect an electronic power module 100 to the electronic control board. Each electrical connection element 150 is preferably disposed on the plane substrate 110 of the power electronic module 100 which supports it, as shown in FIG. 2, and is intended to be electrically connected to the electronic control board.
    Advantageously, at least one space extends between the electronic power modules 100 and the support of the electronic card and around the or each electrical connection element 150. In particular, the electrical connector 10 extends at least part in said space. In other words, the electrical connector 10 is located between the power electronic modules 100 and the support of the electronic card, and around the electrical connection elements 150. More specifically, the electrical connector 10 comprises through orifices, detailed below, configured to receive the electrical connection elements, so that a part of the space results from both sides of the electrical connector. This space is advantageously configured to allow air circulation.
    FIG. 3 represents an assembly comprising the electronic control unit, here an electronic control card 300, and the support 400 of said electronic card. In particular, the electronic control card 300 is welded to the support 400.
    The support 400 of the electronic card is preferably made of insulating material, for example molded plastic material. The support 400 comprises an open cavity 402 having a bottom on which the electronic card 300 is received.
    The open cavity 402 is intended to be filled with an insulating material so that the electronic control board 300 is embedded in the insulating material. For example, as shown in FIG. 5, the electronic card is embedded in an insulating material B. The electronic control card 300 is thus effectively isolated.
    The support 400 also comprises at least one hollow column 404 in which the or each electrical connection element 150 of the electronic card 300 with the electronic modules 100 is inserted. The hollow column 404 extends from the open cavity 402 and is configured to communicate with the open cavity 402 at a first end of the hollow column 404. In particular, the support 400 of the electronic card may comprise a plurality of hollow columns, each hollow column being intended to receive the electrical connection elements 150 of each electronic module 100 with the electronic control card 300.
    Advantageously, the support 400 of the electronic card may comprise a channel 406, also called filling element of the hollow column 404. Of course, the support 400 may comprise a plurality of channels 406, each channel 406 being associated with a hollow column 404 For example, in FIG. 3, the support 400 of the electronic card comprises three channels 406, each channel 406 respectively allowing the filling of a hollow column 404.
    Preferentially, the channel 406 has a general shape of ramp, for example a helical shape. One end of the channel 406 communicates with the bottom of the open cavity 402 and another end of the channel 406 communicates with a side wall of the hollow column 404. The channel 406 thus allows a quick and space-saving access inside the column dig 404.
    The hollow column 404 is filled with insulating material B, in particular via the channel 406 during the deposition of insulating material on the electronic control board 300 or in the open cavity 402, so that the electrical connection elements 150 are embedded. in the insulating material B. The channel 406 ensures a correct filling of the hollow column 404 by the insulating material B, thereby ensuring effective electrical insulation of the electrical connection elements 150.
    Advantageously, as illustrated in FIG. 5, a second end of the hollow column 404 is in contact with the insulating material A in which the electronic module 100 is embedded. This configuration makes it possible to guarantee the filling of the hollow column 404 of insulating material B, and thus to ensure an effective insulation against dust, liquids, gases or even the humidity of the electrical connection elements 150. The insulating material thus eliminates any risk of possible short circuit at the interconnection of the electronic card 300 with the power electronic modules 100.
    In particular, the electronic control card 300 and the electronic power modules 100 may be insulated with identical or different insulating materials A, B, preferably an identical insulating material, in particular an insulating gel. The interface between the insulating material A of the electronic power module 100 and the insulating material B of the electronic control board 300 is in particular located inside the hollow column 404, near the second end of the hollow column 404. , as shown in FIG. 5. The space between the electronic card 300 and the power module 100 and extending around the electrical connection elements 150, and more precisely around the hollow columns 404, is devoid of material, in particular of insulating material. The free space of material, in particular of insulating material, has, inter alia, the effect of leaving a free space for the circulation of air, thus allowing a convection cooling. In particular, this configuration makes it possible to reduce the production costs of the electronic architecture, thanks in particular to a gain in insulating material. This material free space at least partially receives the electrical connector 500.
    In addition, the electronic control card 300 may advantageously comprise an orifice 306 arranged opposite the end of the channel 406 communicating with the bottom of the open cavity 402 for filling the hollow column 404 of insulating material B through channel 406.
    The support 400 of the electronic card preferably comprises at least one other heat sink 412. For example, in FIG. 3, the support 400 comprises two heat sinks, allowing dissipation of the heat generated by the electronic card 300.
    In addition, the bottom of the open cavity 402 preferably includes positioning elements 408 for positioning the electronic card 300 on the support 400 in a predetermined position. In other words, the positioning elements 408 disposed on the support 400 of the electronic card are intended to cooperate with complementary positioning elements 308 of the electronic card 300. For example, in Figure 3, six positioning elements 408 are shown, each comprising a cylindrical pin protruding from the bottom of the open cavity 402, perpendicular to the bottom. The six complementary positioning elements 308 of the electronic card 300 are positioning orifices preferably having a section of shape and dimensions complementary to the shape and dimensions of the positioning elements 408, here a circular section. These positioning elements 408 make it possible to position the electronic card 300 correctly and quickly on the support 400, and thus to allow an efficient electrical connection of the electronic card 300 with the electronic power modules 100.
    In addition, the bottom of the open cavity 402 advantageously comprises guide elements 410 of the at least one electrical connection element 150 arranged at the first end of the hollow column 404 and intended to guide the at least one electrical connection element 150 towards the electronic card 300. For example, in FIG. 3, the bottom of the open cavity 402 comprises three groups of guide elements 410. The guide elements 410 comprise guide orifices making it possible to refocus the electrical connection elements 150 by view of the electrical connection of the electronic module 100 with the electronic card 300, and thus to correctly connect the electronic module 100 with the electronic card 300. Preferably, as shown in Figure 5, to allow a better refocusing of the connection elements 150, the section of the guide holes opposite the electronic module 100 is larger than the section of the guide holes facing the electronic card 300. The electronic architecture also comprises an electrical connector 500, particularly illustrated in Figure 4. The electrical connector 500 has a general shape of horseshoe for housing a brush holder of the electric machine, detailed subsequently, in the hollow of the electrical connector 500.
    The electrical connector 500 preferably has a substantially planar shape and comprises at least one trace of power intended to be electrically connected to at least electrical elements of the electrical machine and / or a source of electrical energy. In particular, the electrical connector 500 is configured to electrically connect the electronic power unit and / or the electronic control unit to the at least one trace of power.
    For example, the electrical connector 500 illustrated in FIG. 4 comprises three power traces included at least in part in the plane of the electrical connector 500. For example, the first power trace is intended to electrically connect an electronic power module to a power supply. phase φ of the electric machine, the second power trace is intended to be electrically connected to a pole of positive polarity B + of a source of electrical energy so as to supply an electronic power module and / or the electronic control card , and the third power trace is intended to be electrically connected to a pole of negative polarity B 'or to the ground of a source of electrical energy so as to supply an electronic power module and / or the electronic control board .
    The power traces are overmolded at least in part electrically insulating material, for example plastic material. Part of the overmolding 508 of the power traces is visible in FIG. 4.
    Preferably, the second and third power traces are at least partially superimposed in a direction substantially perpendicular to the plane of the electrical connector 500. In other words, the second and third power traces are at least partly arranged one above on the other in the substantially planar shape of the electrical connector 500.
    The second and third power traces are separated by an insulating material, generally an electrically insulating material such as for example a plastic material. Preferably, the thickness of the insulating material separating the superposition of two portions of the second and third power traces is less than or equal to 2 mm, in particular equal to 1 mm. Very advantageously, the thickness of the insulating material is greater than or equal to 1 micron and less than or equal to 100 microns.
    In addition, each power trace comprises at least one terminal devoid of overmolding, so that an electrical contact can be made with an electronic power module. A terminal is preferably located in the plane of the electrical connector 10, and is made accessible through a window in the electrically insulating material. The first power trace comprises two terminals 502 visible in FIG. 4, the second power trace comprises three terminals 504 and the third power trace comprises six terminals 506. The terminals 502, 504 and 506 allow an electrical connection with the electronic modules power. Advantageously, the second and third power traces are totally superimposed except at the terminals, so as to allow an electrical connection between the electrical connector and an electronic power module, while maximizing the superposition surface power traces. This configuration also allows space saving within the electrical connector.
    The second and third power traces may also each include at least one pin, also called pin, intended to be electrically connected to the electronic card. The lugs 514, 516 preferably extend from the plane of the electrical connector 500 in the direction of the electronic card. Advantageously, the lug of each of the second and third power traces is respectively located at one end of said power traces. In addition, the lug 514 of the second power trace may be adjacent to the lug 516 of the third power trace, as shown in FIG. 4, in order to facilitate the connection with the electronic control card. For example, the lugs 514, 516 are adjacent and substantially located in the middle of the electrical connector 500. Preferably, the overmolding 508 of the second and third power tracks mechanically connects the lug 514 of the second power trace and the lug 516 of the third trace of power. In particular, the lugs 514, 516 of the second and third power traces are made of metal.
    The electrical connector 500 may also comprise a gasket 518 extending between the electronic card and the electrical connector 500 and around each lug 514, 516 to ensure the seal between the electrical connector 500 and the electronic card at the lugs 514 , 516 when isolating the electronic board with the insulating material. This seal 518 also makes it possible to prevent the insulating material B from flowing around the lugs 514, 516.
    In addition, as shown in Figure 4, the electrical connector 500 may include at least one through hole 520 for receiving the at least one electrical connection member. Preferably, the through orifice 520 has a general cylinder shape and comprises at least one side wall 522 extending from the substantially flat portion of the electrical connector 500 in a direction substantially perpendicular to the plane of the electrical connector 500, particularly in the direction of the electronic card. Advantageously, the side wall 522 makes it possible to mechanically protect the electrical connection elements.
    Advantageously, the side wall 522 comprises at least a portion of the periphery of the through orifice 520, as illustrated in FIG. 4. The side wall 522 preferably has a height greater than or equal to 2 mm and less than or equal to 10 mm. and a thickness less than or equal to 3 mm and greater than or equal to 0.5 mm.
    The electrical connector 500 may comprise a plurality of through orifices 520, each through orifice 520 being intended to receive at least one electrical connection element of the electronic control board with each electronic power module. For example, in FIG. 4, the electrical connector 500 comprises three through-holes 520, each through-orifice 520 comprising a side wall 522.
    As indicated above, the electronic architecture 10 according to the invention advantageously comprises a capacity block connector 600.
    The capacitance block connector is in particular supported by a second portion 204 of the heat sink 200 visible in FIG. 2, distinct from the first portion 202 supporting the power electronic modules 100. The first and second parts 202, 204 of the heat sink 200 are particularly separated from each other by at least a wall 208. The wall 208 allows in particular the insulation of the power electronic modules 100 in the first part of the heat sink 200.
    The electrical connector 500 and the capacitance block connector 600 are electrically connected to provide power to the power electronics modules 100. The capacitance block connector 600 may be generally horseshoe-shaped. In particular, the capacity block connector 600 and the electrical connector 500 form the periphery of an orifice for receiving the brush holder of the electric machine.
    Capacitor block connector 600 includes at least a fourth power trace and a fifth power trace. For example, the fourth power trace is intended to be electrically connected to a pole of positive polarity B + of a source of electrical energy, and the fifth power trace is intended to be electrically connected to a pole of negative polarity B ' or to the mass of a source of electrical energy. The fourth and fifth power traces are distinct from each other and overmolded at least partly electrically insulating material, for example plastic material. For example, part of the overmolding 608 of the power traces is particularly visible in FIG. 4.
    In a similar manner to the second and third power traces of the electrical connector 500, the fourth and fifth power traces of the capacitance block connector are preferably at least partly superposed and separated by an electrically insulating material such as a material plastic. More precisely, the power traces are at least partly arranged one above the other within the capacitance block connector 600.
    For example, in FIG. 4, at least a portion of the fourth and fifth power traces are superimposed in a direction substantially perpendicular to the plane of the electrical connector 500.
    In addition, each power trace comprises at least one terminal without overmolding intended to be electrically connected to the power electronic modules 100 and the electrical connector 500 so as to provide power to the electronic modules. As illustrated in FIG. 4, the fourth power trace comprises at least one terminal 604, and the fifth power trace comprises at least one terminal 606.
    Advantageously, a terminal 604 of the fourth power trace of the capacitor block connector 600 and a terminal 504 of the second power trace of the electrical connector 500 are intended to be electrically connected, and a terminal 606 of the fifth power trace of the capacitance block connector 600 and a terminal 506 of the third power trace of the electrical connector 500 are intended to be electrically connected.
    In addition, the capacity block connector 600 may comprise at least one capacity block 614 comprising at least one link capacity 610. For example, as shown in FIG. 4, the capacity block connector 600 comprises two capacity blocks 614 located substantially symmetrically on the horseshoe shape of the capacitance block connector 600, each capacitor block 614 comprising three link capacitors 610. The capacitor block connector 600 electrically connects the at least one capacitor block 614 to the connector electrical 500.
    Additionally, the capacity block connector 600 may comprise a ferromagnetic core, for example a magnetic core 612 as shown in FIG. 4, for measuring the electrical current flowing through the link capacitors.
    In addition, according to the embodiment, the electronic architecture 10 advantageously comprises at least one sensor arranged in a sensor holder 700. The sensor holder 700 is made of electrically insulating material, for example plastic.
    Preferably, the sensor holder 700 comprises a plurality of sensors, for example three hall effect sensors, configured to measure the rotational speed and the rotor position of the electric machine. Hall effect sensors are intended to detect a magnetic field emitted by a magnetic element placed on the rotor of the electric machine, and to be electrically connected to the electronic control card 300.
    In particular, the heat sink 200 may comprise a through orifice 212 receiving the sensor holder 700. Preferably, the first and second parts of the heat sink 200 form the periphery of the through orifice 212. The sensor holder 700 is preferably screwed to the heat sink 200.
    In addition, the electronic architecture 10 preferably comprises at least two brushes made of electrically conductive material arranged in a brush holder 800. The brush holder 800 is made of electrically insulating material, for example plastic.
    The brushes are intended to be electrically connected to a pole of positive polarity B + and a pole of negative polarity B 'of a source of electrical energy, so as to allow the power supply of the rotor of the electric machine. For example, the brush holder 800 comprises a body 802, in particular visible in FIG. 6, in which the rotor 4 of the electric machine 1 is intended to be inserted.
    The brushes allow permanent electrical contact between the electronic architecture and a shaft 4 of the rotor of the electric machine. The electrical contact is made by friction between the brushes and the shaft 4 of the rotor of the electric machine which is rotatable about an axis of the electric machine.
    The brush holder 800 advantageously comprises a spring at one end of each blade for exerting a tension in the direction of the shaft 4 of the rotor. More precisely, the spring makes it possible to compensate the wear of a brush so as to allow permanent electrical contact between the brushes and the shaft 4 of the rotor.
    Advantageously, the through orifice 212 of the heat sink also receives the brush holder 800. This configuration notably allows a saving of space within the electronic architecture.
    The brush holder is preferably screwed to the heat sink 200, which allows quick and easy access to the brushes, especially in case of wear of the latter.
    Advantageously, the electronic architecture 10 according to the invention comprises a protective cover 900 allowing an isolation of the electronic card 300. The protective cover 900 is made of electrically insulating material, preferably plastic, and comprises at least one electrically conductive track 902, in particular a copper track, configured to be electrically connected to the electronic control board 300. The track 902 also allows an electrical connection between the electronic architecture and the motor vehicle in which the electrical machine is intended for be integrated. This protective cover 902 thus enables a reduction in production costs, improves the adaptability of the electronic architecture to the motor vehicle and facilitates the installation of the electronic architecture in the motor vehicle. The electronic architecture for powering an electric machine for a motor vehicle according to the invention has been described in the context of a plurality of electronic power modules and an electronic board for controlling said electronic modules. Of course, the invention is not limited to the embodiment described and illustrated, which has been given by way of example. On the contrary, other applications of the electronic architecture according to the invention are also possible without departing from the scope of the invention.
