Abstract
Multi-semiconductor SSPCs that solve bus level problems affecting systems as well as controller level problems affecting individual multi-semiconductor SSPCs are disclosed. Bus level and controller level problems adversely affect multi-semiconductor SSPCs and their associated systems. The disclosed multi-semiconductor SSPCs solve both bus level and controller level problems by implementing controlled rate-change of voltage (dv/dt) ramp-on rate, to ensure that the voltage on the input bus does not collapse when a multi-semiconductor SSPC is commanded closed and that a minimum amount of power is being dissipated evenly across the switching semiconductors.
