Abstract
A power supply system comprises: multiple switched-capacitor converters and a controller. The multiple switched-capacitor converters include at least a first switched-capacitor converter interleaved with a second switched-capacitor converter. During operation, the controller produces control signals. The control signals control the interleaved first switched-capacitor converter and the second switched-capacitor converter to produce an output voltage to power a load.
