Abstract
A parallel power supply device includes a plurality of DC/DC converters connected in parallel, and each DC/DC converter includes: first and second switching circuits with a transformer therebetween; first and second reactors; and a control circuit. The control circuit generates a duty cycle so that a deviation between voltage of a load and target voltage becomes 0. Correction is performed such that, when the magnitude of the duty cycle is smaller than a set value Vth, the magnitude is fixed at 0, and otherwise, the magnitude is decreased by the set value Vth. Then, the phase shift amounts for drive signals for the first and second switching circuits are determined, and the first and second switching circuits are subjected to phase shift control.
