Abstract
In order to provide an improved method for operating a multi-level power converter, a lower threshold value, an upper threshold value above the lower threshold value, and an inflection value between the lower threshold value and the upper threshold value are determined, and in the event that a predefined time signal of a target output voltage passes the inflection value at a first inflection time point, passes the inflection value a further time at a second inflection time point subsequent to the first inflection time point and, between the first inflection time point and the second inflection time point, passes neither the lower threshold value nor the upper threshold value nor the inflection value, a clamping mode of the multi-level power converter is activated as of the second inflection time point.
