1. A converter receiving a source voltage from a voltage source and providing an output voltage across a load, the converter comprising:
a first DC/DC converter having an input port and first and second output ports; and
a second DC/DC converter having an input port and an output port and receiving a control signal derived from the output voltage; and
wherein (i) the input ports of the first and the second DC/DC converters are connected in series across the voltage source, configured such that the voltage across the input port of the first DC/DC converter is less than the source voltage; (ii) the first output port of the first DC/DC converter providing the output voltage; (iii) the second output port of the first DC/DC converter and the output port of the second DC/DC converter are connected in parallel, and (iv) the second DC/DC converter regulates the output voltage based on the control signal.
