Abstract
A method for driving a topological semiconductor switch for a power electronics system, wherein the topological semiconductor switch is split into at least two groups of power semiconductors that are driven temporally separately from one another at a preset switching frequency in such a way that in each case only one of the power semiconductors takes on the total current, wherein the method includes determining of a next switching point, including conducting a pointwise interpolation of the discretized phase current in such a way that the change in the current between two conducting phases is measured and extrapolated, and then, together with the switching frequency, the current rise and the current error are predicted for the next two switching operations, and from this the next switching point with the smallest absolute current deviation is determined.
