Abstract:
A system and method of controlling a power converter that includes at least one first switch of a first switch type and at least one second switch of a second switch type, includes converting, by the power converter, an input power at a converter input into output power at a converter output for a load. Converting the input power into the output power includes turning on, by a controller, the at least one first switch to conduct current from the converter input to the converter output; and turning on, by the controller, the at least one second switch to conduct current from the converter input to the converter output after a first threshold time period following turn-on of the at least one first switch.

Claim (Index 7):
The method of  claim 1 , wherein the at least one first switch comprises a plurality of first switches, and wherein the at least one second switch comprises a plurality of second switches each connected in parallel with the plurality of first switches, and wherein converting the input power into the output power further comprises:\n turning on, by the controller, each of the plurality of first switches to conduct the current from the converter input to the converter output; and turning on, by the controller, each of the plurality of second switches to conduct current from the converter input to the converter output after the first threshold time period following turn-on of each of the plurality of first switches.
