Abstract
A system for implementing current sharing between packaged power converter modules is provided. The system includes a respective current monitoring circuit for generating a current signal indicative of the current supplied by each power converter module, and a respective inverter for inverting the current signals. The current signals and the inverted current signals from each module are provided to a differential current share bus. For each module, an error amplifier is provided to supply a remote sense terminal of the module with a control signal indicative of the difference between the current share bus reference level and a respective current signal.
