ABSTRACT:
Two or more buck converter circuits are cascaded in such a manner that the output of one serves as the input to the next, with the input voltage to each succeeding buck converter stage being reduced in magnitude. The total circuit losses are substantially reduced as compared to the losses generated in a single buck converter having the same input voltage range and the same output voltage and output current. Both positive and negative output terminals may be provided for an output stage.
