ABSTRACT:
Aspects for isolating faults in a redundant power converter are described. An exemplary system aspect includes a first switch at an input of the redundant power converter for protecting the redundant power converter from a high input voltage, and a second switch coupled within the redundant power converter prior to an output capacitor, wherein efficiency of fault isolation is improved.
