Abstract:
A method of controlling a switching frequency of a device is disclosed, the method comprising estimating a rate of temperature ripples experienced by the device; determining the total number of temperature ripples expected over a required lifetime of the device, based on the rate of temperature ripples; determining and setting a first temperature ripple limit based on the total number of temperature ripples expected over the required lifetime of the device; and controlling a switching frequency of the device based on the first temperature ripple limit.

Claim (Index 3):
The method of  claim 2 , wherein the total number of temperature ripples expected over the required lifetime is further determined based on the number of operation cycles that the device is expected to perform and the duration of a single operation cycle.
