Abstract

The present application relates to a method for providing a corrected measuring signal indicating a high voltage on a high-voltage node (HV), including: injecting a periodic injection signal into a voltage divider coupled between the high-voltage node (HV) and a reference potential; obtaining a sensing signal at a sensing node (S) of the voltage divider, wherein the sensing signal depends on the periodic injection signal; from the sensing signal, separating a first sensing signal portion resulting from the high voltage and a second sensing signal portion resulting from the periodic injection signal; and depending on the second sensing signal portion, correcting the first sensing signal portion corresponding to the high-voltage signal in order to obtain the corrected measuring signal.
