Also similar as discussed in FIG. 2B, the first and second converters in FIG. 4B are shown out of phase, and a controller following pattern 404 may alternate providing commands to the first converter and the second converter in alternating cycles. For example, a voltage controller operating according to the steady-state pattern may normally issue a command to the first converter at times 406 and 414 (i.e., the starts of the first and third steady-state cycles) and normally issue a command to the second converter at time 410 (i.e., the start of the second steady-state cycle). In some embodiments, therefore, the steady-state cycles, from the perspective of each converter, may be expressed as twice as long as the cycles of the steady-state pattern 404. For example, one cycle of the steady-state pattern may elapse between time 406 and time 414 from the perspective of the first converter. For this reason, the duty cycles of the first and second converter may be calculated not with respect to the period of the cycles of pattern 404 (e.g., the length of time between time 406 and time 410), but rather with respect to twice the period of the cycles of pattern 404 (e.g., the length of time between time 406 and time 414).
