Patent attributes
A power supply to be connected in parallel to one or more other power supplies so as to share with the other power supplies in supplying load current to a load is disclosed. The power supply includes a load current comparison part including a first input terminal and a second input terminal and outputting a difference in level between a first signal applied to the first input terminal and a second signal applied to the second input terminal. The load current comparison part includes a differential amplifier. A first input terminal of the differential amplifier is connected to a first input terminal of the differential amplifier of each of the other power supplies. A signal indicating a load current supplied by the power supply is input to a second input terminal of the differential amplifier. A non-directional impedance element is inserted between the first and second input terminals of the differential amplifier.
