POWER INVERTER AND METHOD FOR CONTROLLING A POWER INVERTER

A power inverter comprises a first and a second input terminal, a first output terminal, a first MOSFET which couples the first input terminal to an inverter node, a second MOSFET which couples the second input terminal to the inverter node, an inductor that couples the inverter node to the first ou...

Zusammenfassung:A power inverter comprises a first and a second input terminal, a first output terminal, a first MOSFET which couples the first input terminal to an inverter node, a second MOSFET which couples the second input terminal to the inverter node, an inductor that couples the inverter node to the first output terminal, a current sensor configured to provide a sensor signal that is a function of an inductor current, a comparator arrangement configured to compare the sensor signal with a first limit value and a control arrangement configured to switch the first MOSFET from a conducting state to a non-conducting state and the second MOSFET from a non-conducting state to a conducting state in case the sensor signal rises above the first limit value.
