Single wire current share paralleling of power supplies

TL;DR: In this paper, a parallel control circuit is used to measure the output current from each power supply and compare this output current to the average output current produced by all the power supplies.
Patent

Three-phase AC power converter with power factor correction

TL;DR: In this paper, a PFC power converter for converting 3-phase AC to DC in a single, isolated conversion step, using 3 forward converters, is presented, where each forward converter is duty modulated proportional to its rectified AC input voltage, producing unity input power factor.
Patent

Tolerant power converter

TL;DR: In this article, a solid-state power converter using a transistor bridge structure and symmetry modulation to improve output stability when driving resonant loads is presented, where the power converter utilizes a direct coupled driver for each upper switching transistor, permitting a wider control range than a transformer.
Patent

Regulator control system

TL;DR: A switching power supply for converting an input voltage to a different output voltage includes a power switch for producing a sequence of pulses from the input voltage, an output filter for filtering said pulses and for producing an output voltage from the filtered pulses.
Patent

Capacitor coupled current mode balance circuit

TL;DR: In this article, a control circuit is provided for controlling the on-time of a pair of switching transistors in a half bridge converter, which includes a first comparator for comparing the converter output voltage with a reference voltage.
