Abstract

A diagnostic system for a power conversion apparatus including a semiconductor device and performing a switching operation for carrying and interrupting a main current to a main current is disclosed. This system includes a trigger circuit that acquires reference time for the switching operation; and a delay time calculation circuit that acquires first time at which the main current takes a first main current set value and second time at which the main current takes a second main current set value, and that detects numerical data about a difference between the first time and the reference time and numerical data about a difference between the second time and the reference time.
