DC/DC converters connected in series or parallel allow low power devices to be used in high power conversions. The input series output series (ISOS) connection is suitable for situations where both the input and output sides are high voltage fields. To ensure that each module shares voltage with the other, this paper proposes an active output voltage sharing (AOVS) control scheme. The scheme introduces sharing control in the output side so that the isolation is not needed between the input and output sides in the control loop. The AOVS control scheme, consisting of a common output voltage loop and individual output voltage sharing loop, has a master-slave structure. To improve the reliability and realize a hot-plug, this paper also provides an automatic master-slave form of the AVOS control scheme. A simulation of the frequency and time domains is used to verify the accuracy of the small signal model, and an ISOS-connected prototype consisting of three forward converters is made to test the steady and dynamic characteristics of the proposed scheme.
