Abstract
A power converter can include at least one first power stage circuit and a second power stage circuit, where each of the at least one first power stage circuit can include: at least one power switch, configured as a main power switch; a first magnetic element; a first energy storage element configured to be coupled to a first node of the first power stage circuit together with one adjacent power stage circuit, and to be charged or discharged through the adjacent power stage circuit; and an auxiliary module configured to ensure that a current flowing through the first magnetic element is not less than zero in a current discontinuous mode, where a first terminal of the second power stage circuit is coupled to an adjacent first power stage circuit.
