Abstract
A current sharing circuit provides redundant power supplies with current sharing through the use of multiple feedback loops and existing circuit diodes to generate shared load current within predefined load voltage regulation requirements. A method of sharing current allows adjustment of the feedback loops to accommodate characteristics of the circuit.
