The operation of a mechatronic system with a power converter is advantageously and flexibly improved with regard to electromagnetic interference emission and acoustics. A regulation of the instantaneous switching frequency is proposed, with the natural variation of the switching frequency of the delta-sigma PWM in the cycle of the fundamental voltage being taken into account, which can achieve advantages in terms of EMC, acoustics and switching losses. The regulation of the instantaneous switching frequency in particular creates a possibility of generating a specific, calibratable noise with the underlying drive. It can be used to generate a brand-specific, recognizable noise of a vehicle and also to meet normative requirements for the acoustic perceptibility of purely electric vehicles (BEV).
