Abstract:
A method of controlling a power converter having a plurality of parallel-connected switching devices, the method comprising: measuring a threshold voltage of each of the parallel switching devices at start up of the parallel power converter in an initial self-calibration process; and determining synchronization of a time at which the threshold voltages of the respective switching devices occur.

Claim (Index 5):
The method of  claim 4 , wherein the synchronized turn-on time is determined by varying C by adding external voltage controlled capacitance at the input of the respective switching device and applying a control-bias voltage on the capacitor to effectively change the value of C in real-time to synchronize the turn-on time of the switching device.
