            Abstract : 
The paper describes the dynamic behaviour of a parallel-input/parallel-output current-mode controlled DC-DC buck-boost converter as an initial research for multi-input/multi-output. One of the main application for this system is the integration with photovoltaic (PV) arrays when be connected to the grid as a renewable energy source. The two-module converter comprises two identical buck-boost circuits and operates in the continuous-current conduction mode (CCM).
