Abstract
A method analyzes an operating condition of a power converter. The method includes: providing a sample clock signal; determining repeatedly at least one operating parameter of a power semiconductor device of the power converter; and determining the operating condition of the power converter depending on the at least one determined operating parameter. The repetitions of the determining the at least one operating parameter are synchronous to the sample clock signal. For a given repetition of the determination of the at least one operating parameter, determining the at least one operating parameter includes measuring the at least one operating parameter or identifying a value for the at least one operating parameter from a previous repetition depending on a switching behavior of the power converter within the given repetition.
