Abstract
DC-DC power converters operating in parallel, redundant configurations can produce high availability systems, which can tolerate the failure of one or more of the power converters involved. This paper details a simple but effective method for insuring current sharing in paralleled modules, which can be applied to power convertor modules from many different manufactures
