In one aspect, a method is described. The method may include operating a plurality of circuit elements, and operating a plurality of magnetically-coupled power-balancing circuits. Each individual power-balancing circuit may be electrically coupled in parallel to a respective circuit element and each individual power-balancing circuit may include a first switch and a second switch (or perhaps more than two switches). The method may include designating one power-balancing circuit of the plurality of power-balancing circuits as a primary power-balancing circuit, and alternately toggling the first switch and the second switch of the primary power-balancing circuit in accordance with a first duty cycle.
