Abstract
An apparatus such as a power converter includes a first flying capacitor, a second flying capacitor, etc., an inductor, and a network of switches. The network of switches controls conveyance of energy from the multiple flying capacitors to the inductor. The inductor converts the received energy into an output voltage to power a load. A magnitude of the respective voltage on each of the flying capacitors is substantially the same.
