Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	A method and device for reducing voltage loads of semiconductor components of an inverter. The method includes: ascertaining a request to charge a battery of an electric system including the battery, the inverter, and an electric machine. The inverter including a series connection including a first and a second semiconductor component, and being configured to convert a direct voltage provided by the battery into an alternating voltage for the electric machine, and adapt a gate voltage of the first semiconductor component and/or of the second semiconductor component to interrupt a current flow between the battery and the electric machine during the charging. A voltage load of a gate oxide layer of the semiconductor components is reduced by decreasing the gate voltages of the first semiconductor component and of the second semiconductor component and/or a voltage load of a drain-source path of the semiconductor components being matched to one another.
