An interleaved boost converter 100, comprising a switching circuit 102 with two switching arms 122 and 124, each including at least two switches and an inductor. A load detection module 104 determines the electrical load, while sensors 106 monitor the temperature and operational time of the switches. A control unit 108 is configured to activate both switching arms 122 and 124 upon boot-up and deactivate one switching arm when the electrical load falls below a predefined percentage of total capacity. The control unit 108 alternates operation between the switching arms 122 and 124 if the temperature or operational time of switches in one arm exceeds predefined thresholds, reducing thermal stress and enhancing efficiency. When the electrical load exceeds the predefined percentage, both switching arms 122 and 124 are reactivated. Adaptive phase control optimizes efficiency, minimizes losses, reduces thermal stress, and improves reliability by dynamically adjusting operational phases.

A system and method for runtime analysis and shutdown control of a liquid cooling system provides coolant distribution units (CDU) for circulating a liquid coolant through downstream information technology (IT) devices via a fluid network. The downstream IT devices are powered by a primary power source via power distribution units (PDU), and the CDUs via uninterruptible power supplies (UPS: e.g., server-based, rack-based). A controller monitors battery runtimes of the UPS and, when a loss of primary power is detected, calculates a remaining system runtime based on the battery runtimes. When the system runtime is at least a minimum threshold, a shutdown protocol is initiated providing for a graceful shutdown of downstream IT devices to preserve the hardware and any active IT workloads. When the shutdown protocol is verified complete, the controller transitions the CDUs to an idle runstate until primary power is restored.

A power management system may include a power converter to provide output power to one or more loads from at least one of a primary power source or a backup power source, where the power converter is operable in at least a power smoothing mode, and where the power converter in the power smoothing mode shields the primary power source from periodic load swings by periodically charging and discharging the backup power source to compensate for the periodic load swings. The system may further include a controller including one or more processors configured to execute program instructions causing the one or more processors to generate state of charge measurements of the backup power source in the power smoothing mode based on a weighted combination of two or more state of charge measurement techniques.
