Abstract
A circuit portion comprises a DCDC converter that provides current from an output to a plurality of loads. Channel logic circuitry is configured to provide current from the output of the converter to each load according to a cyclical sequence, wherein each cycle has a duration that is divided equally into a plurality of time slots. The channel logic circuitry is configured to provide current to each load for one or more discrete time slots. The number of time slots is greater than the number of loads so that at least two output loads receive current for different numbers of time slots in a cycle.
