Abstract
The DC to DC voltage converter consists of two single ended pulse width modulated converters with a single voltage control loop, a power balancing control loop and overload protection circuitry. The converters which share the same input and output filters are staggered in time so as to reduce the pulse current in the input filter capacitor and the ripple current in the output filter capacitor thereby permitting a reduction in the size of the input and output filters.
