Abstract: A two-phase interleaved converter includes two sub-circuits, a voltage controller, a current controller, a balancing controller and a phase shifter. The voltage controller receives the output voltage of the two sub-circuits and outputs a signal in proportion to the level of the output voltage. The current controller receives the output signal of the voltage controller and an inductor current from one of the two sub-circuits and outputs a control signal that controls one of the two sub-circuits which is in charge of one phase. The balancing controller receives values of currents output from the two sub-circuits and calculates a difference between the values of the currents output from the two sub-circuits to control a duty ratio of the control signal applied to one of the two sub-circuits. The phase shifter shifts a phase of the control signal output from the balancing controller.
