Abstract

A DC-DC converter has a plurality of diverse type DC-DC converter channels whose outputs are combined to provide a composite DC power output to a load. One of the channels is a high efficiency power path that supplies the average current demand of the load. A second channel comprises a fast transient response power path which handles transient response demands.
