Claim 39:
40. The method of claim 39, wherein said at least first and second switch dies include a plurality of switch dies S1, S2, S3, S4, S5, S6, S7, S8, further comprising:
connecting said switch dies S1 and S2 to form a first phase-leg having a first capacitor coupled between said switch dies S1 and S2 and a first MFC forming a first AC1 bus-bar,
connecting said switch dies S3 and S4 to form a second phase-leg having a second capacitor coupled between said switch dies S3 and S4 and a second MFC forming of a second AC2 bus-bar,
connecting said switch dies S5 and S6 to form a third phase-leg having a third capacitor coupled between said switch dies S5 and S6 and a third MFC forming a third AC3 bus-bar,
connecting said switch dies S7 and S8 to form a fourth phase-leg having a fourth capacitor coupled between said switch dies S7 and S8 and a fourth MFC forming of a fourth AC4 bus-bar,
connecting a common MFC in a form of an AC bus-bar to said AC1, AC2, AC3 and AC4, bus-bars, wherein said first, second, third and fourth phase-legs are connected in parallel between respective MFCs in a form of DC1+ and DC1− bus-bars,
coupling each of said first, second, third and fourth capacitors to said DC1− and DC1+ bus-bars in each of said phase-legs,
disposing said switch dies in each phase-leg at opposite first and third sides of said first and second PCBs, respectively, and
arranging said switch dies on said first side and second side of said first and second PCBs, respectively, in a single row of switch dies.
