Abstract
A method and device for adapting temperatures of semiconductor components. The device includes a first and second semiconductor component, and an evaluation unit. The evaluation unit is configured to ascertain a first and second temperature of the first and second semiconductor component, respectively, calculate a first and second temperature deviation, which represents a deviation of the first and second temperature from a reference temperature, respectively, and adapt a first gate voltage of the first semiconductor component and/or a second gate voltage of the second semiconductor component until the first temperature deviation and the second temperature deviation are smaller than or equal to a predefined maximum allowable temperature deviation from the reference temperature. The adaptation takes place only when a predefined allowable control range for the respective gate voltage is not exceeded, and when the first temperature and/or the second temperature is/are greater than the reference temperature.
