1. A method for operating a power converter comprising an electrical component, a first switch coupled to a first voltage source, and a second switch coupled to a second voltage source, the method comprising:

  • receiving a signal representative of a desired current flow through the electrical component;

    generating a signal representative of a difference between the desired current flow and an actual current flow through the electrical component;

    calculating a first duty cycle for the first switch based on the signal representative of the difference and a first voltage generated by the first voltage source; and

    calculating a second duty cycle for the second switch based on the signal representative of the difference and a second voltage generated by the second voltage source.
