Abstract
A switching converter system comprising a first converter phase and a second converter phase, the switching converter system being operable in: a power conversion mode in which the first and second converter phases are operative to generate a multi-phase output voltage at an output of the switching converter circuit; and a calibration mode in which the first converter phase is operative as a reference supply for the second converter phase to cause a flow of current between the first and second converter phases to enable detection of a characteristic of each of the first and second converter phases.
