Abstract :
In this paper, a control method for autonomous changing the number of parallel driven DC-DC converter is proposed. In order to improve efficiency of the parallel driving, the number of parallel driven converters is dynamically changed for the variations of output power. Taking into account the implementation requirements, the chosen platform was an Field-Programmable Gate Array (FPGA). This paper also shows in detail the analog-digital interface. The study is completed by a detailed analysis of the FPGA programming including states machines and logic diagrams. Finally, an experimental comparison with a typical single converter topology is done.
