Connection for improved current balancing in a parallel bridge power converter

摘要

A power generation system 200 may include a generator 220 and a power converter 262 coupled to the generator 220. The power converter 262 may include a plurality of bridge circuits 210 coupled in parallel. Each bridge circuit 210 may be coupled to an inductor 240. In addition, the power converter 262 may include a plurality of parallel shorting devices 244. The shorting devices 244 may be coupled to the bridge circuits 210 such that an impedance of the inductors 240 is effectively coupled between the shorting devices 244 and the generator 220.
