  • Multi-phase bidirectional DC to DC power converter circuits, systems and methods with transient stress control
    Patent number: 9802493
    Abstract: A circuit, system, and method for a multi-phase bidirectional DC/DC power converter includes a plurality of single phase DC/DC power converter circuits coupled in electrical parallel. A converter controller includes a compensator and a saturation limit function module. The compensator is configured to generate a control signal based on a current command signal and an actual current signal. The saturation limit function module is configured to determine a saturation limit for the compensator while the compensator is in a disabled state.
