Abstract
A system, method and apparatus of balancing a direct current load across a multiple direct current power sources includes receiving multiple direct current inputs to the inputs of a multiple input, single output DC to DC converter. The output current of each one of the direct current inputs is compared to a reference current. The direct current inputs are adjusted in corresponding DC to DC converter modules until the output current of each one of the direct current inputs is equal to the reference current. The adjusted output of the DC to DC converter modules is combined to a single output current that can be output to supply the single output current to a load.
