Abstract: In a method for operating a drive system, and drive system, having a rectifier and at least one inverter including an electric motor, the electric motor is connected at the AC-voltage-side connection of the inverter, the DC-voltage-side connection of the inverter is connected via inductance(s) in addition to the line inductance, to the DC-voltage-side connection of the rectifier, a capacitance is connected at the DC-voltage-side connection of the inverter and/or at the DC-voltage-side connection of the rectifier, a series circuit, including a resistor and a controllable semiconductor switch is connected at the DC-voltage-side connection of the inverter and/or at the DC-voltage-side connection of the rectifier, the braking chopper being operated using a single frequency during the particular time span in which the braking chopper is in operation, the frequency, e.g., being set apart from the resonant frequency of the resonant circuit including the inductance or the capacitances.

Abstract: A drive system includes a first converter and at least one second converter. The first converter has, inside its housing, a first rectifier whose DC-voltage-side terminal is connected, e.g., directly connected, to the DC-voltage-side terminal of a first inverter of the first converter. A first capacitance is connected in parallel with the DC-voltage-side terminal of the first inverter. The second converter, or each second converter, has, inside its housing, a second rectifier whose DC-voltage-side terminal is connected via inductivities, i.e., for example, restrictors, to the DC-voltage-side terminal of a second inverter of the second converter. A second capacitance is connected in parallel with the DC-voltage-side terminal of the second inverter, and the DC-voltage-side terminal of the first inverter is connected via first inductivities to the DC-voltage-side terminal of the second inverter.
