    Abstract: A regulated current-fed power system employs power branching units connected in series. Each power branching unit includes a plurality of parallel-redundant converter groups connected in series with each other within a current path for the regulated current. Each parallel-redundant converter group includes at least two direct current (DC)/DC converters connected in parallel with each other, each sharing the power load. A protection device connected in series with each DC/DC converter disconnects the respective DC/DC converter from the regulated current when the respective DC/DC converter short circuits, with the remaining DC/DC converter(s) then receiving more of the power load. An active clamp connected in parallel with all of the DC/DC converters within a parallel-redundant converter group temporarily sinks a portion of the regulated current when one of the DC/DC converters fails in a short-circuit condition. The active clamp shunts the regulated current around all DC/DC converters within the parallel-redundant converter group converters fail in a short-circuit condition.

    Abstract: A power converter with ground fault protection (PCGFP) circuit includes an input stage, a first voltage converter, and an output stage. The input stage is connected to a power bus to receive an input direct current (DC) voltage. The first voltage converter converts the input DC voltage to a second voltage and switches between an open and closed state to regulate power present on the power bus. The output stage includes a second voltage converter circuit to generate an output voltage having a different voltage level from the input DC voltage. A controller controls operation of the first and second voltage converters and is also capable of detecting a ground fault on the power bus. The controller operates the first and second voltage converts in a fault isolation mode in response to detecting the ground fault such that the first and second voltage converters isolate the ground fault.
