A circuit board assembly may include a first circuit board including a first slot. The circuit board assembly may include a second circuit board. The first circuit board may be interlocked with the second circuit board via interlocking provided by the second circuit board into the first slot.

Interlocked circuit board elements and assemblies

A power supply includes a first (main) power converter and a second (auxiliary) power converter disposed in parallel with the first power converter to produce an output voltage to power a dynamic load. The second power converter includes a primary inductive path magnetically coupled to a secondary inductive path. A controller controls a flow of first current through the primary inductive path of the second power converter to control flow of second current supplied by the secondary inductive path to the dynamic load. During steady state conditions, the first power converter produces the output voltage while the second power converter is deactivated. During transient load conditions, the second power converter provides current boost capability to maintain a magnitude of the output voltage within a desired range.

Power supply and power converter booster

An apparatus includes a controller. The controller monitors a magnitude of voltage powering a first dynamic load disposed in a series circuit path of multiple dynamic loads. The controller compares the magnitude of the voltage to a reference voltage. Based on the comparing, the controller controls operation of multiple power converter phases in a power converter to maintain a magnitude of the voltage powering the first dynamic load.

Power supply system and control in a series dynamic load configuration

An apparatus includes a controller. The controller controls a main power supply to produce an output signal to power multiple dynamic loads such as disposed in series or other suitable configuration. The controller detects a transient power consumption condition associated with a first dynamic load of the multiple dynamic loads. The controller then adjusts control of the main power supply and generation of the output signal based on the detected transient power consumption condition.
