Abstract:
A method and apparatus to bypass, using bypass circuits, non-operating power modules in a power system. Multiple power sources are coupled to inputs of respective power modules. Multiple bypass circuits have respective terminals operatively coupled to the respective outputs of the power modules. The outputs of the power modules are coupled in a series connection and the series connection is coupled across a load. Each bypass circuit includes a switch operatively coupled across a first input of a circuit and an output of a power module. A feedback circuit includes a second input coupled to an output of the circuit. A coupling circuit includes a third input coupled to an output of the feedback circuit. The coupling circuit includes an output operatively coupled across the switch. The switch is biased to provide the bypass responsive to a voltage of the output of the circuit and the voltage of the power module output.

Claim (Index 9):
The power device of  claim 5 , further comprising an auxiliary power circuit, wherein the auxiliary power circuit is configured to provide power to the bypass circuit.
