Electronic converter and related method of operating an electronic converter

A method for operating an electronic converter the electronic converter comprising:

• a switching stage comprising at least one electronic switch, wherein said switching stage is configured to provide a current via a terminal;
• a first capacitor, wherein said first capacitor provides a first voltage,
• a second capacitor, wherein said second capacitor provides a second voltage,
• a switching circuit configured to selectively transfer said current to said first capacitor or said second capacitor,
• a driver circuit configured to drive said switching stage as a function of either said voltage at said first capacitor or the voltage at said second capacitor, and
• a comparison circuit configured to detect the difference between said first voltage and said second voltage, and determine a comparison signal which indicates whether said difference is greater than a threshold, wherein said switching circuit is configured to selectively transfer said current to said first capacitor or said second capacitor as a function of said comparison signal, wherein said switching circuit comprise a SCR, wherein the anode of said SCR is connected to said terminal which provides current pulses, and wherein the cathode of said SCR is connected to said second capacitor;
• the method comprising:
• detecting the difference between said first voltage and said second voltage,
• determining a comparison signal which indicates whether said difference is greater than a threshold, and
• selectively transferring said current to said first capacitor or said second capacitor as a function of said comparison signal.
