The present invention includes multiple power converters for driving one
or more loads via an input power source, AC or DC. A first switching
power converter has first one or more windings coupled to an input power
source, and a second switching power converter having second one or more
windings coupled to one or more loads. A magnetic device comprising a
single integrated magnetic core couples the first one or more windings to
the second one or more windings for reducing switching loss.
