A power transformation system that is constructed and arranged to transform power from one or more primary voltage nodes to a separate secondary voltage node using one or more columns comprised of a plurality of capacitive modules each of which is capable of being either electrically inserted into the column or electrically isolated and electrically bypassed. There is a secondary voltage node, at a non-ground potential, to which a first end of the column is electrically connected. In the two-primary node example there are two high voltage switches, each in series with a reactor; one high-voltage switch adapted to electrically connect a second end of the column to the first primary voltage node and the other high-voltage switch adapted to electrically connect the second end of the column to a second primary node. A controller is adapted to control high voltage switches to connect the capacitances comprising the column sequentially to each primary node so as to transform power, by resonant exchange of energy, between those primary nodes and the secondary node.

A power supply apparatus and a control method thereof are provided. Power conversion is performed according to a switching signal group to provide an output voltage and an output current. An error value between the output voltage and a reference voltage is multiplied by a proportional parameter to obtain a proportional result. The error value is multiplied by an integration parameter to obtain a first calculation value which is then accumulated over time to obtain an integration result. When a slope of the output current is greater than a reference slope and a slope of the output voltage is negative, the slope of the output voltage is multiplied by a differential parameter to obtain a second calculation value which is then added to the integration result over time. A duty cycle of the switching signal group is adjusted according to the sum of the proportional result and the integration result.

A switched-capacitor converter is provided that includes an intermediate voltage generator having a flying capacitor. A sampling and hold circuit samples a top plate voltage for the flying capacitor and samples a bottom plate voltage for the flying capacitor to form an output voltage for the switched-capacitor converter.
