ABSTRACT:
An apparatus and method are disclosed for reducing peaks of operating power drawn from a power source by a multi-channel system. Each channel of the system drives a load and demands operating power from the power source in an intermittent manner. Power is supplied to the multi-channel system from the power source. Operating power from the power source is drawn in an intermittent manner into each of two or more channels of the multi-channel system. The drawing of the operating power is by the two or more channels so that occurrences of peak operating power launched in a first channel do not fully overlap the occurrences of peak operating power in a second channel.
