Abstract
A parallel power supply device according to the present invention includes: a plurality of DC/DC converters connected in parallel to perform power conversion between a DC power supply and a common load; a voltage detector to detect a voltage of the common load; and a plurality of control circuits each to control a corresponding one of the plurality of DC/DC converters, wherein during parallel operation of the plurality of DC/DC converters, the plurality of control circuits control the plurality of DC/DC converters by proportional control using a same target voltage value and a same proportional gain, based on a voltage value of the common load detected by the voltage detector. Therefore, in the parallel power supply device in which the plurality of DC/DC converters are connected in parallel, the individual DC/DC converters can supply electric power to the load independently and equally.
