Zusammenfassung: | A control device for a power semiconductor switch, has a first, second and third electrical control device terminal, and a control device that according to a control signal generates an actuation voltage on the third control device terminal and actuates the power semiconductor switch. An overcurrent detection circuit determines a first voltage corresponding to a primary power semiconductor switch voltage present between the first and second control device terminals and, if the first voltage, further to commence the generation of an actuation voltage for a switch-on of the power semiconductor switch, and if the voltage exceeds a reference voltage, to generate an overcurrent detection signal. A blocking circuit blocks the output of the overcurrent detection signal from the overcurrent detection circuit, if a control current flowing in the third control device terminal for the actuation of the power semiconductor switch exceeds a first current value and/or is designed to block the output of the overcurrent detection signal from the overcurrent detection circuit, if the actuation voltage is smaller than a first voltage value. |
