Which consequence results when thermal runaway occurs in interleaved DC-DC converters within high-power systems?

💡 Explanation

Catastrophic system-wide overcurrent failure can follow thermal runaway, due to the positive temperature coefficient increasing MOSFET conduction because it feeds on itself in a destructive “avalanche”, therefore multiple parallel converters fail, rather than being confined.
