ABSTRACT:
An apparatus and method therefore transfers electric charge between a charge storage device (25) and a first power terminal (11) having a plurality of first-nodes. The method interchanges charge between the charge storage device and a first first-node of the plurality of first-nodes through an inductive section (22); and, when a predetermined charge has been interchanged between the charge storage device and the first first-node, replacing the first first-node by a second first-node of the plurality of first-nodes. Charge is interchanged between the charge storage device and the second first-node through the inductive section. Preferably, the ratio of the charge interchanged between the charge storage device and the first first-node and the charge interchanged between the charge storage device and the second first-node is equal to a ratio of the currents drawn from the first first-node and the second first-node. Charge can also be interchanged between the charge storage device and a second power terminal (12) using a similar method.
