US 10,566,788 B2 · Systems and methods for redundant line voltage drop compensation

Abstract

A redundant boost circuit configured to compensate for a voltage drop between a power supply and a plurality of loads is provided. The redundant boost circuit includes a first compensator module and a second compensator module. The first compensator module includes a first primary boost circuit and a first secondary boost circuit. The second compensator module includes a second primary boost circuit and a second secondary boost circuit. The first primary boost circuit and the second secondary boost circuit are electrically coupleable between the power supply and a first load. The second primary boost circuit and the first secondary boost circuit are electrically coupleable between the power supply and a second load.
