The present invention concerns a method and device for monitoring the gate signal of a power semiconductor (SI), the gate signal of the power semiconductor (SI) being provided by a gate driver (12), generates an expected signal (VGexp) that corresponds to the signal outputted by the gate driver (12) when no deterioration of the gate driver (12) and/or of the power semiconductor (SI) and/or of a load linked to the power semiconductor (SI) exists, compares the expected signal (VGexp) and the signal (VGmeas) outputted by the gate driver (12), determines if a deterioration of the gate driver (12) and/or of the power semiconductor (SI) and/or of a load linked to the power semiconductor (SI) exists using the result of the comparing of the expected signal (VGexp) and the signal (VGmeas) outputted by the gate driver (12).
