A circuit for the parallel connection of multiple high-frequency three-phase power-factor-correction converters is proposed which enables their input and output current ripple to be interleaved. Such interleaved operation substantially improves the composite power factor, line-current ripple and output-voltage ripple. The improvement is investigated by developing solutions to circuit state equations which allow the high-frequency content of the line current, as well as the low-order line-frequency harmonics, to be computed. Conclusions drawn from the computed results are verified experimentally using a 1 kW, two-stage, interleaved converter.
