Abstract:
A dynamic multiple input rail switching unit includes a plurality of DC input voltage rails and a rail switching section coupled to the plurality of DC input voltage rails that is configured to individually connect selected ones of the plurality of DC input voltage rails to a switched rail output. The dynamic multiple input rail switching unit also includes a rail selection section that is coupled to the rail switching section and configured to dynamically choose the selected ones by balancing rail supply currents from the plurality of DC input voltage rails based on rail supply current capacity margins and a switched rail output current. A dynamic multiple input rail switching unit operating method, and a dynamic multiple input rail power converter are also provided.
