A parallel circuit is way of connecting components on separate branches, so the current can take different routes around the circuit. The current is different in different parts of a parallel circuit.

Abstract: Although many snubber circuits have been studied, research on circuits that effectively suppress surge voltage while supporting bidirectional operation remains relatively limited. This paper ...

Hybrid relays combine a mechanical switch with a solid-state switch, and they are set up in parallel to control a single load ...

Abstract: This paper presents a hybrid parallel DC/DC converter to have the advantages of wider zero-voltage switching range, less primary circulating current and higher circuit efficiency. The ...

A single synchronous buck-boost DC/DC converter can deliver high power due to its synchronous switching topology, but eventually the switching and/or conduction losses at higher power can overwhelm a ...
