LM5080 Datasheet (National Semiconductor) - Modular Current Sharing Controller

LM5080, Modular Current Sharing Controller

The LM5080 is a simple and cost effective load share controller that provides all functions required to balance the currents delivered from multiple power converters operated in parallel.

The LM5080 implements an average program (AP) method of active load share control which adjusts the output volta
